6 Ice Cube Business Success Stories [2023]
Ice making is a low-capital business since water is the only raw material used in producing ice fairly, simply, and efficiently. If run efficiently and marketed well, ice making business can be a profitable opportunity.
To start ice making, you need an ice maker, water, and power source.
Here are some real life success stories of starting a ice cube business:
1. Glo® ($4.8M/year)
Hagan Walker (from Starkville, Mississippi, USA) started Glo® over 7 years ago.
Hey, y’all! I’m Hagan Walker - one of the co-founders of Glo! We make liquid-activated products under two different brands - Glo Cubes, which are light up drink cubes - and Glo Pals, light-up sensory toys for children. Both incorporate the same patented liquid activation circuitry.
Hold on to your seats. I believe telling a story should be real - it should include the highs and lows, tell you about how the path isn’t always straightforward, and detail how some things work out for a reason, so let’s start from the beginning.
