Here at Snowie, the focus of our business is providing you with a business opportunity! Carl Rupp and Gordon Rupp, co-owners of Snowie Shaved Ice, have been influencers in the shaved-ice industry for 35 years, and together have invented many of the fastest and most popular ice shavers used throughout the snow cone business world. Snowie does not sell a franchise, but rather, an optimal shaved ice business opportunity. In a franchise, you will pay a franchise fee just to get into the business, you will buy and be limited by territory, and each year you will pay royalties back to the corporate entity. You are bound to them. But at Snowie, we do not look over people’s shoulders. The money you make is all yours. We do, however, educate Snowie business owners in the way a franchise would. We provide free ongoing webinar trainings where Snowie owners and employees can learn and enjoy. Here at Snowie, we all do exactly what you do. Everyone owns a Snowie stand and we offer our popular and delicious shaved ice at stadiums, pools, parks, and neighborhood corners. It’s a choice that just makes good financial sense and can help you put a smile on your patrons’ faces throughout the summer months. Become part of our family, and experience the fun (and funds) of owning a Snowie! Snowie offers its business owners an optimal shaved ice business opportunity. Since we manufacture the machinery needed for the shaved ice business, you can buy directly from us without having to pay for overhead or other tacked-on prices from middlemen. You get the freedom of running your own business while still learning from movers and shakers in the industry.
