Carvel Corporate Office

Carvel was founded in 1929 by Tom Carvel, who borrowed $15 from his future wife to overhaul and operate an ice cream truck in New York. When the truck broke down a few years later, Carvel was forced to sell his product by the roadside. After selling out in two days, Carvel realized that a store at that location would be a smart business move.

Today, Carvel is owned by Focus Brands and has more than 1,000 employees. The company operates approximately 400 franchised ice cream shops across the US, as well as offering its products in more than 9,500 supermarkets and corner stores. Carvel has partnered with other leading brands to create unique ice cream desserts, such as M&M and cookie makers.

The company offers hard-packed ice creams, frozen desserts, soft-serve ice cream, as well as shakes and ice cream cakes. The original store in Hartford, New York,  stood until 2008 when it was demolished to build a Japanese restaurant.

Carvel maintains a corporate office in Atlanta, Georgia.

In December 2022, Carvel launched vegan ice cream cakes.
