About Franchise

NOT ALL ICE CREAM IS CREATED EQUAL.
One bite and you'll agree—Ritter's frozen custard is simply the creamiest, best-tasting ice cream ever to cross your palate. Ritter's is made fresh all day, every day, using high-quality dairy ingredients. We add just a smidgen of pasteurized egg yolk and don't fluff up our ice cream with a lot of air (like many other brands) to produce an amazing combination of flavor and texture. And to the surprise of many taste buds, Ritter's is only 10% butterfat, which is actually less than most competitors.

TRUE FRANCHISE PROFESSIONALS.
John and Bonny opened the first Ritter’s Frozen Custard shoppe in Franklin, Indiana, in 1989. Today, under the TRUFOODS family of brands, Ritter’s Frozen Custard is headquartered in New York City, NY with shoppes all across the Midwest, Florida and Texas.

TRUFOODS, LLC, is our New York City based parent company created by former Goya Foods Vice President and COO Andy Unanue. TRUFOODS owns and operates some of the most highly regarded food franchise names in America including Ritter's Frozen Custard, Wall Street Deli, Naked Chicken Company and Arthur Treacher's Fish & Chips comprising roughly 40 locations nationwide with annual system wide sales of approximately $10 million. TRUFOODS' goal is to grow its existing brands, doubling our number of units over the next five years.

Micro Satellite Scoop Shoppes

Ritter’s Frozen Custard multi-unit business model has far more potential than the typical frozen treat retailer. With Ritter's once you have developed a central unit with ice cream production, you can inexpensively develop multiple micro satellite retail-only scoop shoppes in the area.

Ritter’s micro satellite scoop shoppes are delivered product daily from production units, can be as little as 400 square feetand have a dramatically reduced investment and operating formula. This local production and supply chain formula makes your micro scoop shoppes absolutely ideal for — mall food courts, airports, high volume lifestyle centers, entertainment complexes and sports venues.

Training and Support

All franchisees must successfully complete basic training at a certified training store as well as a 15-day training program. The program will cover day-to-day operations, cost controls, staffing, labor controls and management skills. All the training will take place in an operating shoppe. To assist in your opening period, we will send one of our Regional Director of Operations to your shoppe for 7-10 days. Ritter's also hosts an annual franchisee conference, which brings franchise owners together to discuss opportunities to improve skills and business profitability. It also allows TRUFOODS to communicate with all franchisees about new product marketing issues, and operational improvements.

In addition to your initial training period, Ritter's will provide a support team that will coach you in various facets of construction, equipment, marketing, advertising, staffing, and training. Ritter's Regional Director of Operations will also make regular visits to counsel you on business issues such as operating procedures, inventory, cost control, profitability, and marketing. To ensure consistency, you will have the right to use our Operations Manuals and will be provided with marketing and operational updates.
