Ice Cream Franchising is the Hot New Franchising Trend

Even though the grocery store carries a wide variety of ice cream flavors, nothing can ever replace the experience of standing at the counter of your local ice cream franchise and being handed a fresh cone of your favorite flavor. Owning an ice cream franchise is not only a lucrative business, but also a fun way to be your own boss.

In the U.S. today, ice cream is a $20 billion-plus industry, with 90 percent market penetration. The industry is mature, meaning any gains from one competitor or segment will be scooped from another. It should come as no surprise, then, to learn that U.S. consumers spend up to one-third of their food and beverage budget on products consumed for pure enjoyment, rather than nutritional value, according to a July 2005 report

Dippin’ Dots Franchising, Inc., founded in 1988 and which began franchising in 2000, is another hot new concept, topping Franchise Times magazine’s Fast 55 list, and ranking #2 in Entrepreneur magazine’s Top 50 New Franchise Companies. Dippin’ Dots are tiny beads of ice cream, yogurt, sherbet, and flavored ice, cryogenically frozen, and are served at movie theaters, theme parks, and other entertainment venues nationwide.

Recently announcing a new s’mores flavor, Dippin’ Dots combine old favorites such as marshmallow, chocolate and graham crackers, to delight fans with more frozen goodness.
