Cool Cycles Ice Cream Co. has reinvented the neighborhood ice cream truck. In this redesign, a specially made Cool Cycles sidecar and motorcycle are used to deliver pre-packaged ice cream novelties.
The Tacoma, Washington-based company began offering franchises in 2009. Online information says that the Cool Cycles sidecar can hold 600 ice cream bars so franchisees will be well-stocked for serving patrons in a variety of situations and locations. Cool Cycles also offers a mobile kiosk that can add 400 ice cream bars to on-location sales inventory.
