Business Overview:

High-Volume Long-Established Cold Stone Creamery Queens, NY - Over $1M In Sales!

“Along A Heavily Traveled Commercial Corridor - In An Established Neighborhood Shopping/Dining District - Near Popular Waterfront Destinations In SW Queens”

Outstanding opportunity to acquire a nationally recognized premium ice cream franchise, open since 2005 and consistently generating over $1 million in annual sales, with a substantial customer base and well-established operations. Another major benefit: the seller will complete the franchisor-required store refresh before closing, including updated refrigeration equipment, counters and flooring, estimated at over $100,000!

Founded in 1988, Cold Stone Creamery has more than 1,500 franchised locations worldwide and is famous for freshly prepared super-premium ice cream mixed on its signature frozen granite stone. The menu features customized creations, shakes, smoothies, sundaes, ice cream pies, cupcakes, cakes, take-home ice cream and packaged desserts.

Buyers gain proprietary products and ongoing franchisor support. Multiple sales channels include walk-in, takeout, online ordering and 3rd-party delivery, capturing after-dinner dessert, family-outing and nighttime traffic.

A long-established online presence, positive customer reviews and brand-supported rewards and gift card programs add built-in marketing power. A turnkey opportunity suited to a hands-on owner-operator or a qualified investor.

Market Competition and Expansion:

This iconic brand thrives, holding a dominant position in the frozen dessert category with a differentiated product and customer experience.

Cold Stone claims the highest average unit sales volume of any ice cream concept, and stores are easy to run with state-of-the-art equipment. Ice cream is America’s favorite dessert, and Cold Stone enjoys powerful name recognition, strong brand loyalty and proven staying power as the most recognized premium ice cream franchise in the country.

The franchisor drives sales by expanding co-branded partnerships, new flavors and themed products for each season, holiday and blockbuster movie. A new operator can grow sales through local marketing and active oversight: market birthday cakes, holiday desserts and celebration packages; target office celebrations, corporate events and school functions for catering and group orders; launch neighborhood-targeted social media and online advertising; host community fundraising nights; and tighten labor scheduling, purchasing, food costs and delivery expenses.

Reason for Selling:

Consolidating in the Bronx. Kindly ask the seller for more information.
