Located along Florida’s Emerald Coast, Navarre has emerged as one of the region’s fastest-growing and most sought-after beach communities, attracting both year-round residents and millions of annual visitors to the surrounding Gulf Coast markets.

This is a turnkey operation with trained staff, established systems, loyal customers, and a proven brand supported by Jeremiah's Italian Ice's extensive franchise resources and marketing programs. Jeremiah's Italian Ice is a rapidly growing franchise concept with a loyal customer base, strong operational support, and a simple, scalable business model.

Navarre Beach has received national recognition as one of America's top beach destinations, drawing visitors from across the Southeast and beyond. Its sugar-white sand beaches, emerald waters, protected shoreline, and proximity to Pensacola Beach and Destin create a steady stream of tourism throughout much of the year. The store's protected beachside territory uniquely positions it to benefit from:
• Continued population growth in South Santa Rosa County
• Strong tourism and vacation rental activity
• Expanding residential development
• Military and defense-related economic stability throughout the region
• Increasing demand for family-oriented food and beverage concepts
• Year-round community events, sports programs, schools, and local partnerships
As both tourism and residential growth continue throughout the Emerald Coast, the Navarre market remains well-positioned for long-term business expansion.

The Navarre location has been serving the community since March 2023 and has become a recognized destination for frozen treats throughout the area. The business currently operates under absentee ownership and is managed by an experienced General Manager who oversees day-to-day operations. This provides a buyer with flexibility to remain semi-absentee or become actively involved to increase profitability.

In February 2026, Jeremiah's implemented a systemwide price increase of approximately $0.30 per unit sold. Based on historical sales volume, this increase alone is projected to provide a meaningful boost to annual profitability moving forward.

The largest growth opportunity lies in expanding outside sales and catering. Jeremiah's corporate benchmarks suggest outside sales opportunities well beyond current performance levels, with many comparable stores generating substantially higher event and catering revenue.
The Navarre territory is uniquely positioned to capitalize on tourism-driven demand and beachside events that are not available to many franchise locations.

The current owner has successfully established the business and developed a strong operational foundation while managing the store absentee. The decision to sell is driven by family considerations and a desire to allow a local owner with greater day-to-day involvement to unlock the store's full potential.

This is more than a frozen dessert business—it is an opportunity to own a recognized brand in one of Florida's most attractive coastal communities and capitalize on substantial untapped growth opportunities.
