Hello! Who are you and what business did you start?

Hello! My name is Shannon Imler and I am the founder of the Ice Cream Factory. I grew up on a farm with my two twin sisters, one brother, my father, and my grandfather. I started the Ice Cream Factory to bring the best, most delicious ice cream to my hometown. I had no idea it would grow into the wonderful company that it has!

We now have ten total ice cream containers that we sell in-store. Our flagship flavors include Blackberry Cobbler, Brownie Blast, Cake Batter, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, Cobalt Cookie, Coconut Almond Paradise, Extreme Mint, Factory Favorite, Gooey Butter Cake, and Peanut Butter Blast. In the last 18 months, we have expanded to 400+ stores, opened a second location, and are in several states.
