Now in 2024, our technology driven approach is paying off as our franchisees are moving at a faster rate from signing to opening with a big reduction in costs. That, combined with our incredible family-first culture, amazing product, ability to deliver ice cream successfully, and our investment in our people is why we’re seeing double digit increases across our system. Ice cream is just a fun business to be in.

Great story and great interview by our Chill-N Brentwood, TN Franchise Owner Wesley Langlois. We're set to open an additional 5 units this year while looking to sign another 7-10 franchise agreements. We're committed to smart and strategic growth with franchisees like Wesley.
