Antanas Guoga invests in ice-cream business

“I have faith in the business model of Soprano and I want to help this business, which is very well known in Lithuania to go global. I think this can be achieved in a few years with the experienced team, which will now be supplemented with new talent. We have a real chance to attract international investors in the second seed round,” said Antanas Guoga.

According to Mr. Mažulis the first round funds will be used for the optimisation of chains operations, refurbishment of the shops and preparations for expansion to other European cities.

“We will put customer satisfaction in the forefront of our everyday work by strengthening our staff. Everything starts with us and the energy we spread in our workplace and towards our clients. We are seeking that Soprano shops would be visited daily not only during summer season, but throughout the year,” said Vytenis Mažiulis
