About I-CE-NY

"I-CE-NY

I-CE NY (I-See-en-why) is the original rolled ice cream from Thailand. In 2011, rolled ice cream or smashed ice cream was firstly introduced to the world under the brand "I-TIM-PAD" (or ไอติมผั in Thai). The company quickly stormed Thailand with 30 franchise vendor locations in the first six months. Now, it’s grown to over 250 locations all over Thailand, and Asia continent including Cambodia, Laos, Indonesia etc. In 2015, we’ve crossed the Pacific and established our first store in New York City, called I-CE-NY.
7 ice cream base flavors + 20 mix-in ingredients + more than 32 toppings = endless opportunities to challenge your creativity.

The total investment necessary to begin operation of a single I-CE-NY shop is $146,400 to $404,300. This amount includes $30,500 to $40,500 that is payable to the franchisor and their affiliates.
The total investment necessary to begin operation under a three to five unit Multi-Unit Development Agreement is $53,000 to $80,000. This includes $50,000 to $75,000 that must be paid to the franchisor. There is no minimum number of  shops that you are required to develop under the Multi-Unit Development Agreement.
