From your first store to your hundredth site
Whether you have never run a frozen-dessert business or you manage a national network, the same team specifies, installs, trains and services.
Opening your first store?
Opening a gelato shop, frozen yoghurt store, ice cream store or frozen pastry business? Our guides cover the machines, ingredients, display, packaging and training you need, and our team helps you from first plan to opening day.
Running a group, resort or chain?
From a single drive-through to a national rollout, we match the right machines to your menu, your throughput and your floor space, then back every site with genuine spare parts and qualified technicians so you keep trading.
One specification. Every site.
For chains, the priority is consistency and rollout discipline. The cone that comes out of your Auckland store should look and taste like the cone in Christchurch. We help you standardise on machines and ingredients so product quality, portion control and presentation stay uniform across the network, which protects your brand and simplifies training for high-turnover crews.
When you add sites, we replicate the same specification and the same support, so each new location opens with equipment your teams already know how to run.
Quick-service & drive-through
High-throughput, push-button Carpigiani soft serve, shake and slush machines engineered for relentless commercial duty. Size for output per hour at your peak, not headline capacity.
Hotels, resorts & clubs
A batch freezer lets a kitchen produce small-batch artisan gelato and sorbet in-house, while an ISA refrigerated display cabinet merchandises scoops at the perfect serving temperature for buffets, dessert stations and patisserie counters.
National rollout & service
Backed by our highly experienced team: more than 100 people across the business, including our national service team. Genuine spare parts and qualified technicians follow the machine wherever it goes.
The brand behind the machine matters as much as the machine itself
Choosing frozen-dessert equipment is a long-term decision. Three things set us apart:
Specialists for over 30 years.
More than three decades focused purely on frozen desserts means we know the machines, the menus and the margins. We advise on what genuinely suits your venue, volume and budget — not just what’s on the shelf.
Premium Italian brands.
Carpigiani and ISA are benchmarks for reliability, output and finish. Quality equipment makes a better product, runs more efficiently and holds its value.
The backup promise.
Equipment is only as good as the support behind it. We stock genuine spare parts and field qualified technicians across New Zealand, so a breakdown doesn’t become lost trade. This is the promise our customers value most — you are never left stranded.

The right machine depends on what you make and how much of it
Batch freezers and pasteurisers underpin artisan gelato and sorbet production, giving you control over recipe and texture. Soft serve and frozen yoghurt machines come in countertop, freestanding, gravity and pump-fed configurations, with single, twin and twist options to match your menu and footprint. Slush and granita machines suit cafés and convenience trade, while ISA display cabinets turn finished product into impulse sales.
Think about hourly output and peak demand, available bench or floor space, water cooling versus air cooling, and power supply — many higher-output machines need three-phase power, which is a key part of planning your install. Our team helps you weigh capacity against running costs and energy efficiency so the machine pays its way.
Every supply comes with nationwide service and spare parts support. Carpigiani and ISA are built to run hard in commercial conditions, and our genuine-parts inventory and qualified technicians keep them running — protecting your uptime and your reputation. Talk to us about the full Carpigiani range and the configuration that fits your site.
Great equipment and great ingredients work together
The finest machine still relies on quality bases, pastes and toppings to deliver the flavour, texture and consistency your customers come back for. Our ingredients range is matched to the machines we supply, so you can dial in reliable, repeatable results across gelato, sorbet, soft serve and frozen yoghurt.
Whether you’re refining a signature recipe or standardising a multi-site menu, the right ingredients help you control cost-per-serve and keep quality high. Ask our specialists how to pair ingredients with your equipment for the best outcome.
Classic toppings, crumbles, flavoured chocolate, glitter toppings
Rubicone toppings are premium, flavour-packed dessert sauces perfect for gelato, soft serve, açaí bowls, pastries, and more—ideal for adding taste, texture, and visual appeal.

Commercial Frozen Dessert Equipment, Supplied and Serviced New Zealand-Wide
Commercial frozen dessert equipment covers the machines and refrigeration that cafes, gelaterias, restaurants, dessert bars and chains use to make and display gelato, ice cream, soft serve, frozen yoghurt, sorbet, acai bowls and slush. Majors Group New Zealand is the official New Zealand importer of premium Italian brands Carpigiani and ISA, supplying, installing and servicing the full range nationwide from our Auckland and Christchurch bases. Whatever you make and however you sell it, we help you choose the right machine, get it running and keep it running.
Our Story
Majors Group New Zealand exists to put world-class Italian frozen-dessert technology in the hands of New Zealand operators, and to stand behind it long after the sale. As the official New Zealand importer of Carpigiani and ISA, we bring in equipment built by manufacturers who set the global standard for gelato, ice cream and refrigerated display. Our showrooms and support teams in Auckland and Christchurch, with our warehouse at Unit 5, 110 Mays Road, Onehunga, mean you are buying from people who know the gear, know the market and are here in New Zealand when you need them.
Why Operators Choose Us
We are not a catalogue reseller. We are the people who import the brands, specify the right configuration for your menu and venue, install it properly and train your team. That gives you a few clear advantages:
- Official importer of premium Italian brands — genuine Carpigiani machines and ISA display cabinets, sourced through the proper channel, not parallel imports.
- Expert specification — we match output, footprint and power to how you actually trade, so you do not over-buy or under-spec.
- New Zealand-wide reach — sales, delivery, installation and service from Auckland to Christchurch and everywhere between, including Wellington, Hamilton, Tauranga and Dunedin.
- Equipment finance — finance is available for up to 100% of a new asset's purchase price, so you can get earning sooner.
Our Backup Promise
A frozen-dessert machine only makes money when it is running, so our most important commitment is backup. Majors Group New Zealand holds genuine spare parts and employs qualified technicians nationwide, so when something needs attention you are never left stranded with a thawing display or a stopped batch. From preventive servicing to urgent breakdown support, our service and spare parts team keeps your equipment producing season after season. It is the difference between an asset you own and a partner you can rely on.

How to Choose, Install and Run It
The right machine starts with your menu and your trade. Batch freezers suit artisan gelato and ice cream where you want control and craft; continuous and soft serve systems suit steady, high-volume service; pasteurisers let serious producers make mix from scratch. From there it comes down to output for your busiest hours, the footprint and power available in your space, and whether countertop or freestanding fits your counter. Most quality machines are designed to run efficiently and need relatively little day-to-day maintenance, and they earn their keep quickly once the queue forms. Our specialists size all of this against how you actually trade, organise delivery and installation New Zealand-wide, and make sure your team is confident before the first service. Pricing is on application, and finance can cover up to 100% of a new asset, so talk to us early and we will build the package around your site.
