In 1956, the soft ice cream industry was revolutionized when Mister Softee took to the roads with the first mobile truck unit. The company quickly gained traction, becoming a hit with the public and earning the title of the industry leader. As the company grew, it remained committed to spreading smiles, and its popularity skyrocketed. Today, Mister Softee is America’s oldest and largest franchisee of soft ice cream trucks, with hundreds of trucks across the nation.

They are not satisfied with their current job and believe they have untapped potential. They are willing to work hard, especially during the busy ice cream season. Those who have successfully expanded into multiple fleet owners demonstrate that with dedication, hard work, and the right mindset, a Mister Softee franchise can be a prosperous and rewarding venture.
