One of the last businesses of the Queensland floods has re-opened.
Due to the extent of the damage it had to its refrigeration equipment, Rosalie Cold Rock Ice Creamery in Brisbane will reopen almost three months after the disaster.
Donna and John Weatherhead, the owners of the store, were forced to re-start their 13-year-old business.
“The water ruined our fridges, freezers, cold room and display cabinets and the walls had to be ripped out and the ceiling replaced,” Weatherhead said.
“We’ve had to start again from a bare shell which has been a daunting task.
“In the beginning we felt like flood victims but it’s time to move on. This Saturday will be a great way to tell Brisbane that we’re well and truly ready to welcome customers back.”
