Established Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Business - Two Prime Vancouver, WA Locations
This turnkey ice cream operation represents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a market-leading business with 24 years of proven success and strong community recognition.

- Annual Revenue: $603,000
- Cash Flow (SDE): $146,360
- Asking Price: $450,000

- Established 2001, current ownership since 2014

- Absentee owner operation model
- Lease: $2,000/month through June 2028 at 1 location and $3000/month through 6/1/2026. Both with lease extension opportunity.
Key Strengths:
- Market leader with 15+ year award recognition

The current ownership acknowledges turning down substantial business due to time and capacity limitations.
