The Scoop N Scootery

What The Scoop N Scootery does

The Scoop N Scootery is a private dessert franchise operating customizable ice cream and frozen yogurt sundaes through 11 storefronts across seven U.S. states (Massachusetts, North Carolina, Texas, New Jersey, Florida, Virginia, and South Carolina). Founded in 2015 from a food truck operation in Boston, the company serves individual consumers seeking late-night dessert options, with most locations operating until 2am and offering both pickup and delivery. The brand was built primarily through word-of-mouth referrals and earned Grubhub's #1 Dessert Delivery Shop in America ranking in 2019.

The core product is a customizable sundae: 11 base ice cream flavors and 6 frozen yogurt flavors, 40+ toppings, 12 specialty cores and fillings (e.g., Cannoli Cream, Nutella, Marshmallow Fluff), and three house-made whipped cream varieties, sold in four sizes (Mini 12oz to Legendary 24oz) at unit prices of $9-$11. Operations rely on a proprietary sundae production and delivery system developed over nearly a decade, encompassing temperature storage, modified delivery equipment, packaging, and preparation efficiency standards. The three company-owned stores (Arlington, Allston, Cambridge) jointly fill over 500 deliveries per day, with direct ordering via the company website and pickup-app integrations (Toast Tab, ChowNow, Order.online) supplemented by third-party delivery aggregators (DoorDash, UberEats, Grubhub).

The revenue model combines three streams: direct retail sundae sales from three company-owned stores, recurring franchise fees and royalties from eight franchise-operated locations, and transaction-based delivery revenue. The GTM motion is direct-to-consumer via storefronts and digital channels, with a parallel B2B franchise program offering training, technology integration, and operational support to entrepreneurs. The company is incorporated as The Scoop N Scootery Franchising, LLC in Massachusetts, with no institutional funding, acquisitions, or public listing disclosed.
