Over 70 Years of Sweet Success!
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.
At Carvel, we believe in promoting Carvel through
multiple types of venues. Our unique concepts allow our franchisees
to offer our delicious ice cream products in a wide range of locations
and opportunities.
