Description

Company Background
Chillers Microcreamery is the result of a successful 62-year old, third generation family owned ice cream business with a unique approach. The company was founded by an entrepreneur who had spent his entire life in the food industry and wanted to apply his knowledge to something he loved: ice cream! The name Chillers Microcreamery came about because it's all about "chilling" out with your favorite flavor of soft serve or hard scooped ice cream that is made fresh on site for you. They are passionate about providing each customer with the highest quality product at competitive prices while maintaining their commitment to health and wellness. With decades of experience, they know how important it is for customers to be able to find the perfect flavor
Franchise Opportunity
Ice cream is a delicious treat, but it's often loaded with unhealthy fats and sugars. Not all ice cream is created equal. Traditional ice cream is made with high-fat dairy products, refined sugar, and artificial flavors and colors. Chillers Microcreamery(R) offers a healthier alternative to traditional ice cream. Our micro-batch ice cream is made with fresh, all natural ingredients including real fruit and nuts. We never use artificial flavors or colors, and we sweeten our ice cream with organic cane sugar or honey.
Corporate Structure
Chillers Microcreamery concept was developed from the success of a 62 year old business called Zesto, located in New Albany, Indiana. While the Zesto name and trademark are not any part of the Chillers franchise, it is important to note that the development, structure, ideas, recipes, policies, procedures, and owners of Chillers were derived from the experience and success of a the business
