Ice Cream Franchise Owners Can Help Grow Their Local Economies

Cold Stone Creamery Franchise Owners Can Help Contribute Meaningful Growth to the Places They Live and Work

Cold Stone Creamery ice cream franchise might be a nationally known, iconic brand, but our franchise owners own and run small businesses in communities across the nation. Franchising with Cold Stone is a chance to build a sustainable business with real, lasting economic impact.

Franchise owners are small business owners too, and according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, more than 60 percent of all jobs added annually in the U.S. occur because of small businesses. Our franchise owners not only provide a great first-job for their employees, they also give their community a place to have a 10-minute vacation with our famous, made in-store ice cream.

“Cold Stone Creamery is a truly remarkable brand with a 30+ year history,” says Jay Goldstein, VP of Franchise Development with Cold Stone Creamery. “Over the years, we’ve helped hundreds of entrepreneurs become small-business owners who now continue spreading joy and enhancing their community.”

As an Ice Cream Franchise Owner, You Promote Philanthropy as Much as Economic Growth

Cold Stone offers a family-friendly, community-oriented opportunity to regularly spend time each week meeting with school leaders, nonprofits, and other organizations. You will have the opportunity to meet the members of your community for collaborations, events, and other business ventures, each time strengthening bonds. 

SVP of Franchise Development, John Wuycheck explains, “Our franchisees make real investments of both time and money to franchise with Cold Stone Creamery.” It’s common for owners to fortify their communities with commitments through time, charity, or labor – each method of philanthropy a hopeful example for participants to pay it forward. 

“We’ve been helping entrepreneurs establish new Cold Stone Creamery businesses for a long time, and we’ve built an iconic business model that requires no previous experience,” continued Wuycheck.
