Frios Gourmet Pops - Franchise

Own a Frios Gourmet Pops Franchise
We would love to tell you that Frios was made by elves, fairies, or Oompa Loompas because there is so much magic in these frozen treats on a stick (serious, serious amounts of magic but nothing illegal).

The Frios magic is the product of one man wanting to escape the doldrums of corporate life and remember the beauty of being happy. The moments of laughter and the ones that make you SLOW THE HECK DOWN and look for that MAGIC every darn day.

Something this magical requires some equally magical humans. Frios loves people who love people. People who try to live magically every day. We like to call these people “Happiness Hustlers” and it’s what we call ourselves every day.

Frios Sweet Ride
Every official Frios Happiness Hustler™ gets their very own Frios “Sweet Ride”.  A Frios “Sweet Ride” is a fully customized mobile food truck/ice cream truck set up for proper “Happiness Hustling™” (also known as SUCCESS!). You will quickly become everyone’s favorite in your community. With a low start-up cost, and no storefront, owning a Frios franchise is easy and rewarding!

Why Invest in Frios Gourmet Pops?

  • Simple Franchise Operations
    While many mobile franchise concepts say they’re simple, Frios Gourmet Pops truly means it and our flexible model fits a variety of operator styles. The Frios popsicle  truck (aka Sweet Ride) is optimized for ease of operation and can even be managed by one person on a part-time or full-time basis.
    A Frios franchisee can operate at virtually any event and our product requires zero prep work because our delicious pops are pre-packaged. That means all you need is the truck and a freezer and you can be a Happiness Hustler, a term we coined for our franchise owners who spread joy through their community one pop at a time.
  • Low-Cost Investment 
    As a low-cost franchise, Frios provides an option to prospective franchisees looking to step back from their desk job and into our side hustle. Those interested in owning a Frios Gourmet Pops franchise should commit to investing between $40,925 and $71,775. Plus, Frios is a proud partner of the VetFran and DiversityFran programs, granting approved candidates 10% off of the total franchise fee.
