About King of Pops

- Approachable, simple, low start up cost business - Accessible and strong King of Pops franchisee network - Pre-packaged, high quality product that you love to eat, and is fun to sell

King of Pops is a low cost to entry, mobile, simple, home-based franchise business that specializes in all-natural, hand-crafted, gourmet ice pops. We franchise our cart business which is a pop push-cart that can be set up indoors or outdoors so event opportunities are near limitless. All you need to keep the cart frozen for hours is dry ice or reusable cold plates. You can start with one cart and scale to more as you grow your business. We are headquartered in Atlanta, Ga where we make all of our unique and high-quality pops on site with the best ingredients and as locally-sourced as possible. We have developed hundreds of both full-time and limited flavors and our franchisees receive early access and the lowest wholesale price with bulk discounts. You simply need space to store product and carts, a way to transport the cart to events, and can ideally run everything from your home. No store-front required. We are seasonal so there is a relief period during the winter portion of the year and we provide extensive resources and networking support for our franchisees. Our company purpose is to create Unexpected Moments of Happiness and we support our franchisees with a program to offer free pops in the communities and causes they are passionate about.
