This popular, profitable Ice Cream Business for Sale is the perfect opportunity for an enterprising owner/operator to step into an established, turnkey business! Located in a high-traffic area close to several schools and major residential neighborhoods, it produces year-round sales consistently exceeding $300,000! 

Ice cream enjoys enduring popularity that transcends culture, age and social trends. Little wonder that ice cream contributed $11.4B to the U.S. economy in 2023, with the market expected to grow from $18.3B in 2024 to $25.5B in 2033! Importantly, it is an inflation- and recession-proof dining-out option, with customers willing to indulge in high-quality and traditional ice creams in any economic environment. Why not get onboard today? Ranked as one of the top three Hershey's sellers in a multi-state area, this Ice Cream Business for Sale offers over 52 flavors of hand-dipped ice cream, including Italian ice, vegan, dairy-free and sugar-free options, as well as soft-serve, ice cream cakes, coffee, espresso and more! There is a full complement of well-maintained equipment, including Hershey's-provided ice cream freezers, four Stoelting and two Taylor soft-serve machines, refrigerated prep tables, a walk-in freezer and walk-in cooler, and more. Check out the extensive equipment list to learn more!

Previously operated as a Sonic Drive-In, this 1617 sq. ft. building was completely renovated by the owners to create the area's go-to dessert destination, open seven days per week and offering walk-up counter service, outside seating for 72, and a drive-through window. The original hoods, grease trap and other equipment are still in place - should a new owner elect to expand the menu to include burgers, fries or similar fare, this can be readily accomplished. This We Sell Restaurants exclusive offering has been optimized for efficiency and streamlined operations, and runs with a staff of 7-10 part-time personnel in the winter months and 16-20 in high season. Many of the crew members attend the local high school or nearby colleges, historically the owners have enjoyed very low staff turnover as a result.

Rent for the business is currently $2,681 per month, and there is ample parking and easy in/out access to major roadways. The owners are willing to consider the sale of the real estate to a qualified, interested buyer. We have lenders standing by with options for secured and unsecured lending on this business. Why not inquire today on this Ice Cream Business for Sale!
