Questions about being an ice cream man

[BlancoNino]

1. How much does it cost to start up?

2. Is it profitable?

3. Any other variables?

Thanks!

Not that kind. The kind where I have my own ice cream truck. I'm actually pretty serious about this. It'd be something I enjoy doing during the summer while I'm not in school and I have the money/help to start it up.

Selling ice cream is the side business, the real business is profitable.

i think you need to start before summer, not as summer is over

A few kids in the grade above me did it for summer work. I think the truck cost somewhere around 5-6000 dollars. Don't quote me on that.

You would have to buy bulk ice cream, thats for sure.

Where is that picture of a ghetto van with "CANDY" spray painted on it when you need it!

I searched at bbzzdd for van, and candy, but I got pictures of girls. :laugh:
