The Gelato Industry is booming in Italy and has been for centuries. Gelato is slowly catching on in the Unites States in places like California and Southern Florida. There are a number of U.S. Gelato companies sharing the market demand and there is still room for many more.
A great way to get involved in the gelato business is by linking up with an established brand that makes their own gelato.
There are two ways to work with these established gelato businesses:
1. Franchise: Franchising allows a gelato entrepreneur to use an established gelato company’s brand name, products, marketing support and training/education. However, there is a large fee for this helpful service, including royalty fees on your future gelato business revenues.
2. Licensing: Licensing the rights to use an established gelato company’s product, brand name, marketing support and training/education is the alternative to Franchising. The beauty of gelato licensing is that there are no royalty fees.
