Marketing manager at intu Braehead, Christine Macdonald said: “We’re delighted to have created what we believe is the world’s smallest ice cream van, but the real win will be seeing the smiles it puts on people’s faces at intu shopping centres around the country for those lucky enough to get free ice cream.

“At intu we have something for everyone and whether you’re someone who loves to shop or a bit more of a last minute panic shopper, we aim to ensure you leave happier than when you arrived.”
