Company Background
Abbott's Frozen Custard is a family owned and operated business in Texas. Founded in 1939, Abbott's has been serving up the most delicious custard around for over 75 years. And while our frozen custards are an iconic part of what we do, they're just one flavor of many that include sundaes, shakes, malts, floats and more! Abbott's Frozen Custard was founded by Vernon Abbott Sr., who saw opportunity in his hometown to provide customers with a refreshing treat on hot summer days. He started out selling ice cream from a pushcart before deciding to open up his first storefront location in 1941. Over the next few decades he added five additional locations until 1976 when he sold
