During a four year period of the economic downturn faced by America, ice cream brands such as Cold Stone Creamery and Baskin-Robbins saw drastic drops in annual sales. Cold Stone went from $430 million to $366 million and Baskin-Robbins went from $496 million from $570 million. However, this is not a symbol of a dying industry by far. Baskin-Robbin started back up their flavor of the month campaign and the industry is expecting to see some highers in upcoming years. While frozen yogurt can become a fierce competitor to ice cream, even after the TCBY explosions in the 80’s/90’s, ice cream businesses survived. It has become an American icon. The following list of ice cream companies are names from around the area to help inspire your own possible brand.
