CEC Ice Cream Group: Excellence Since 1961
CEC Ice Cream Group LTD is a family-owned business that began as a small operation. Through a commitment to quality, resilience, and determination, we now cater to some of the largest events across the UK.
Our Fleet
Instead of buying standard units, we build ours in-house via our sister company. This ensures our units are designed for maximum efficiency, quality, and volume.
Our units include:
- Modern Ice Cream Vans & Gelato Parlours
- Soft Serve Parlours & Vintage Units
- Coffee & Waffle Trailers
- Italian Trailer Trikes (And Others Upon Request)
Our Vision and commitment
Since we started in 1961, we’ve learned that a great event depends on more than just showing up; it’s about constant improvement. We don’t just settle on a menu; our team is always on the ground, listening to feedback and looking for ways to make our products even better. We take the same approach with our partners. We know how much pressure event managers are under, so we focus on clear, honest communication and tailoring our setup to fit your specific site perfectly—we’re there to make your life easier, not harder.
As we look ahead, our goal is simple: to keep growing without losing the personal touch that got us here. By building our own custom units in-house, we’re able to bring more variety and better technology to new events across the UK, ensuring we always have the right tools for the job.

Our Environmental Standards & Eco-Friendly Innovation
We take our impact on the environment personally. By building our own units, we’ve been able to fit them with electric motors and battery packs that allow us to switch off our engines on-site—removing exhaust fumes and engine noise from the event. We keep things local by sourcing our ice cream and gelato within the UK, and we follow a strict recycling policy to ensure we leave every site exactly how we found it.
The CEC Standard
We combine a 5-star hygiene rating with a commitment to speed and quality. Whether it’s keeping queues under four minutes or ensuring our units are spotless, we focus on the details so you can focus on your event.
Our ice cream is 100% natural, GMO-free, Halal accredited, and Gluten-free, making it the perfect choice for everyone, including vegetarians and those with specific dietary requirements. To ensure a safe and professional service, every member of our team is fully trained in allergen traceability and product provenance, meaning they can confidently answer any questions your guests may have.
