About Chill-N Nitrogen Ice Cream

Here’s how Chill-N works: customers choose a portion size, then an ice cream base (milk, yogurt, sorbet, no sugar added, or alt-milk option – coconut, almond, or oat) and then one of 20+ rotating flavors, including seasonal options. Then the fun begins with the addition of Mix-N’s: premium toppings including candies, cookies and cereal, fresh fruit, sauces, nuts, and more. Each scoop of ice cream is hand-crafted to order and flash-frozen on the spot using liquid nitrogen at a startling negative 320° Fahrenheit. Chill-N’s unique freezing process results in a fresh ice cream that is ridiculously rich and decadently creamy.

Franchise Highlights

The brand was able to reduce opening costs for new franchise owners by 20%, which translates into nearly $100,000 in savings per store because of reengineered nitrogen tanks that now fit underneath ice cream production lines.

Those savings, coupled with systemwide sales increases of nearly 45% are driving Chill-N’s growth like never before and accelerating interest in the brand and in the $11.2 billion U.S. ice cream industry.

Chill-N saw unit growth expand by 40% while also increasing ice cream delivery by an incredible 80% across the system.

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