History
Carvel Ice Cream
- Tom Carvel began his company by selling ice cream from the back of his mobile truck in 1929 after borrowing $15 from his future wife, Agnes Stewart.
- In 1934 Tom Carvel founded the first Carvel ice cream shop.
- Things were going great so Tom Carvel started franchising in 1947 and by 1951 he had already opened 100 stores!
I am here to ask for an investment of 50,000 dollars in order to start up a franchise called Carvel.
