There Are 3 Ways For You To Own A Repicci’s Italian Ice Franchise

1. Making Italian Ice As a Manufacturing Franchisee. While most franchises simply resell products, Repicci's manufacturing franchise owners actually make the product and wholesale it to retail franchises. This simple manufacturing process yields improved profit margins and gives you greater control over the business. A manufacturing background is not required, and our processes are best described as "Simple Manufacturing".

2. Regional Distribution Franchisee. As the regional supplier for the Retail Franchisees, a Distribution Franchisee typically will provide products to up to 4 Retail Franchisees covering a total of about 1 Million in population. In addition to the retail profits you can earn as a retailer too, you will earn a revenue share on all the products sold by the Retail Franchisees in your region.

3. Retail Franchisees. This home based business opens a wealth of opportunities where selling at weekend events (sports, musical, and even NASCAR) or opening a retail location can earn you profits right away! Your marketing area will be approximately 250,000 people and if you move, your business can move with you! Retail Franchisees may also with the permission of the Regional Distribution Franchisee wholesale the products to other organizations or schools.

Importantly, the Repicci's franchise family shares good ideas because more visibility across the country benefits everyone. What works in another state or an adjacent territory may work for you and we encourage our business owners to network, share ideas, and help one another to increase profits.
