Carvel Ice Cream Franchise Information:
Get the Scoop!

In 1934, Tom Carvel borrowed $15 from his future wife Agnes, filled a battered vending truck with ice cream, and drove off in search of the American dream. His truck broke down in Hartsdale, NY, but the dream never faltered. On that very site, Tom Carvel started selling his ice cream which would one day become New York City's number one ice cream brand and would create a cult-like following that has existed for over 70 years. Today, you are pursuing your own American dream, and we welcome the opportunity to share the many reasons why you should consider a Carvel franchise.

Our vision is simple. We want to be a national player in the ice cream industry, an innovator in franchising and a "best in class" employer. This is what gets us up in the morning.
