Three Generations.
One Family Recipe.
What started in a single kitchen with one churn and one stubbornly perfect vanilla recipe has grown into a beloved brand serving customers across the island. We're still family-owned—and we wouldn't have it any other way.
A Recipe Worth Sharing
In 1987, our grandfather, Errol "Scoopy" Bellfield, set up a small ice cream shop with a hand-cranked churn, a chalkboard menu, and an unshakable belief: that ice cream made with real ingredients—real cream, real fruit, real care—simply tastes better.
He was right. Word spread quickly through the neighborhood, then the parish, then beyond. What started as a weekend hobby became a family business, with his children rolling up their sleeves alongside him.
Today, Scoopy's is run by his son and daughter, with the third generation already learning the trade. The recipes haven't changed. Neither have our standards.
The Values That Guide Us
Family businesses are built on more than products—they're built on principles. Here's what's stayed the same across three generations.
Family First
Every team member, partner, and customer is treated like family. We take care of our people, and they take care of our craft.
Quality Without Shortcuts
Real cream, real fruit, real flavor. If we wouldn't serve it at our own family table, we won't put it in a pint.
Rooted in Community
We source local where we can, support our neighborhoods, and grow alongside the businesses that helped us get here.
Built to Last
We think in generations, not quarters. Every decision we make is meant to leave the business better for the next family member.
From One Churn to an Island-Wide Brand
The First Churn
Errol "Scoopy" Bellfield opens a small ice cream shop with a hand-cranked churn and a single vanilla recipe.
The Family Joins In
Errol's children come on full-time. Production moves out of the original shop and into a dedicated kitchen.
First Wholesale Partner
A local grocer asks if we'd stock their freezers. We say yes—and our wholesale story begins.
Kingston Hub Opens
Our first full distribution facility opens, allowing us to serve partners across the Corporate Area reliably.
Going Island-Wide
Montego Bay and Mandeville hubs open. Scoopy's becomes available in every parish across Jamaica.
The Third Generation
Errol's grandchildren are now part of the team, learning the family craft and shaping what Scoopy's looks like for the next 40 years.
