Kona-Ice

The KONA Company is "Driven" to Success

There is nothing like the KONA Ice experience! The instant you hear the tropical music, developed exclusively for KONA, over the BOSE sound system, you know something special is about to happen. KONA pulls up and your eyes are treated to a tropical scene that whisks you away to the islands. The sound of laughing with excitement fills the air. You're greeted by the smiling face of someone handing you a big cup of delightfully shaved ice. Then it's on to the Flavor Wave where you discover an endless variety of tropical flavors to build your own personal KONA Ice. Delicious entertainment like this keeps customers coming back all day long!

Our mission is to bring the most efficient, financially rewarding Entertainment Vehicle to our franchisees, while maintaining a morally responsible and uplifting product to our customers. KONA Ice provides a complete turnkey franchise at a fraction of typical food industry costs. With no paralyzing build-out costs or long-term store front lease, you can start making money immediately.  

"I have never seen anything brand so quickly, serve so quickly, and make so much profit in all my 20 years in the food industry."
