How many investments can deliver an ROI of greater than 100% in their first year alone? How many nationally branded franchise businesses can be launched for as little as ICE EXPRESS costs?
The first packaged ice vending machines went into commercial production back in 2003 in Georgia, USA. They quickly became a regional phenomenon, spreading across the American South like wildfire. Over the years they have spread northward in the United States but these big American machines have always been too expensive for many climates or for placement at all but the busiest locations, with some costing as much as $120,000!
These high prices and numerous regulatory hurdles have kept packaged ice vending out of Canada until Canadian Ice Vending came along and introduced ICE EXPRESS. You can now own the only ice vending machine in the world specialized for the Canadian market for only a fraction of what the big American machines cost. Even smaller American machines made by fly-by-night manufacturers sell for several times what ICE EXPRESS costs.
You are probably wondering, "Why are these crazy guys selling ICE EXPRESS for so little when they could charge so much more?" The answer lies in our Founder's personal philosophy. Though he might bristle at the term "populist", our Founder strongly believes that this great opportunity should be accessible to all, from the largest national chains to even the smallest independent convenience stores, hotels, and entrepreneurs. He wants every ICE EXPRESS operator to be as happy and profitable as possible. A large part of accomplishing that is keeping the cost of ownership low and combining it with great customer support. Happy, profitable customers are the best advertising one can have.
Products
Our signature product, the IX180, is Canada's first and only specialized ice vending machine. Our machine has been specifically designed with the demands of the Canadian environment in mind. It is robust enough to work outdoors during the summer-time while being so compact that it can be easily moved indoors to operate through the winter without dominating the precious space inside a convenience store.
