About Sloan's Ice Cream

Our unmistakable look, terrific service and unforgettable ice cream have become a tourist attraction and a hot spot for local residents. While we think we have the greatest ice cream on the planet, what really differentiates Sloan's is the brand and systems that we have created to replicate the memorable experiences for all of our customers.
Sloan's has been the recipient of numerous awards for best luxury ice cream.
We are a family business and our franchisees can also be family businesses. Sloan Kamenstein created Sloan's out of a love of fine foods and sweets. As an accomplished chef and entrepreneur, Sloan still leads the company and is heavily involved in innovation, product development and growth.

*Sloan's logos, signage, designs and operational systems
