Kona Ice is Heating Up in California

Kona Ice, a Kentucky-based shaved-ice concept, has entered the California market with the same success that they have seen in the rest of their expansion. In just a few short months after registration, they have already sold 5 units in the Golden State. "The reception has been great," says Tony Lamb, CEO of Kona-Ice. "We have seen massive interest in our concept and its great to see California showing us the same opportunity for growth."

"Despite the unfortunate economic situation that is affecting the residents of the state," continues Mr. Lamb, "there are a lot of people who want to open Kona-Ice and many who intend to progress into multi-unit ownership. This is a true win-win-win, being great for Kona-Ice, great for the entrepreneurs of California, and great for the state itself."

"The Kona-Ice expansion has been an incredible success story of this recessionary period," says David Gollahon of Franchise Insites. "The company began their advertising push last winter and has opened 50 new units this year alone. When you look at the results, I can't imagine a better testimonial for the strength of the concept and the team involved."
