A family business in the food catering industry that has sold Roman “pizza alla pala” with the highest quality mortadella since 1950.
Gino 1950 have chosen to launch their brand outside their neighborhood by buying a customized Ape TR to offer their customers an unforgettable meal.
The Ape Piaggio TR is a food truck designed without an engine that can be placed anywhere, even inside commercial spaces. In Gino’s case it can be found in the Valmontone outlet. It’s a mobile food vendor that captures the attention of passersby.
