Cold Rock Ice Creamery Franchise

Cold Rock Ice Creamery: A Sweet Journey from Aspley to Australia

In the picturesque suburb of Aspley, Queensland, a sweet dream came to life in 1996. Today, we proudly stand tall with over 90 stores, making Cold Rock Ice Creamery a household name across Australia.

From Small Beginnings to National Success

Our story began with humble aspirations, and as we grew, we recognized the potential of our unique concept. To bring our delicious creations to every corner of Queensland and beyond, we embraced the franchise model.

In August 2002, a significant turning point occurred as the previous management team acquired the Australian Franchise System of Cold Rock. With their unwavering commitment and expertise, they embarked on a journey to elevate Cold Rock to the pinnacle of ice cream franchises in Australia.

Milestones and Achievements

Cold Rock’s remarkable journey reached a major milestone in November 2008, marked by the grand opening of our eightieth store in the vibrant city of Melbourne, Victoria. The following year, we celebrated the inauguration of our 100th store in the iconic Olympic Park!

These milestones stand as a testament to our dedication to bringing joy to ice cream enthusiasts across the nation.

A Proudly Australian Legacy

Today, Cold Rock Ice Creamery is under the capable stewardship of the Franchised Food Company. We take immense pride in being 100% Australian-owned and produced, a testament to our commitment to our roots and our nation.

As we continue to serve delectable ice cream creations, our promise remains the same – to spread smiles, one scoop at a time, and to be the beloved ice cream destination for all Australians.

Join us in celebrating the sweet journey of Cold Rock Ice Creamery, where every scoop is a taste of happiness!
