Artisanal Ice Cream Production Set - Basic Version

🧊 ARTISANAL ICE CREAM PRODUCTION SET - BASIC VERSION

A practical, high-potential artisanal production structure for entrepreneurs who want to enter the frozen products market, with a versatile, efficient, and scalable solution.

⚙️ Included Equipment:

① Pro4
② Mixer15

See details about each piece of equipment in the “Machines” menu.

Production Capacity: Up to 100 liters of ice cream per hour.*
(*) Up to 80 liters/hour of creamy Açaí. Up to 25 liters/hour of medium-consistency gelato.

🍸 WHY THIS BUSINESS MODEL STANDS OUT

Producing water-based or milk-based ice cream is one of the most accessible business opportunities in the food and beverage industry, combining low initial investment with the potential for significant profit margins.

Açaí in ice cream format has become a strong attraction in various types of commercial locations - not only in ice cream shops - expanding business possibilities beyond traditional ice cream.

Simple to implement and based on traditional recipes, this product line is usually the ideal starting point for entrepreneurs entering the artisanal segment - and equally attractive for companies looking to expand an existing operation.

This business can be structured in different ways:

• as a manufacturing-only operation, supplying stores and distributors
• as a factory combined with a retail shop
• or as a scalable multi-unit model, through franchises or company-owned units

📊 ESTIMATED REVENUE POTENTIAL

Illustrative estimate of annual revenue (symbolic currency): 1.2 million coins.

Considering a production routine of 5 hours per day, plus 3 additional hours for preparation and logistics, this structure can produce approximately 500 liters of ice cream per day, or 10,000 liters per month based on 20 working days.

Considering seasonality:

• 3 months per year at full production
• 9 months per year at half of that volume

In this scenario, annual production reaches approximately 75,000 liters per year or 600,000 scoops of 125 ml ice cream per year.

For this example, we consider a selling price of 2 symbolic coins per 125 ml scoop of ice cream, which may vary depending on whether the product is sold wholesale or directly to the final consumer. Based on this assumption, the estimated annual revenue reaches 1.2 million symbolic coins.

The average production cost per scoop may range from 0.20 to 0.80 symbolic coins, depending on the recipe, ingredients, and the amount of incorporated air (generally 40% or more).

Ice cream is typically packaged in disposable containers of 5 or 10 liters.

Naturally, other costs must also be considered, such as:

• labor
• rent
• equipment depreciation
• taxes
• commercial expenses
• logistics
• and other operational costs

Sales growth up to the level of 500 liters per day is gradual and depends largely on the business’s ability to promote itself and expand its market presence.

Profit margins can be quite attractive and depend on efficient management of all these variables, as well as many other strategic factors. In our ice cream production courses, we explore in depth the elements that drive long-term business success.

🏭 RECOMMENDED MACHINES

① PRO 4

Ice cream production machine (Batch Freezer) with up to 70% air incorporation - unique in the market with this advantage.

This is equipment with more than 20 years of presence in top ice cream shops; simple to use, efficient, and profitable.

② Mixer15

A seemingly simple piece of equipment, often mistaken for a regular blender, but it is much more than that: it can homogenize ingredients and reduce particle size to provide remarkable smoothness to the final product.

It also incorporates air into the mixture, substantially increasing profitability.

🏗 ACCESSORIES AND INFRASTRUCTURE

The set of machines presented does not include essential factory infrastructure items, such as:

• freezers for product storage
• work tables
• handling utensils

• cleaning equipment
• delivery vehicles
• and other operational needs

Entrepreneurs must also plan the resources necessary for business administration and marketing, including:

• computers
• software
• internet and telephone services

It is also extremely important to work with qualified professionals in areas such as accounting, architecture, and engineering to meet the requirements for electrical, plumbing, and civil installations, whether the operation is only a production unit or also includes a retail store open to the public.

This support is essential to ensure compliance with all local regulations applicable to the business location.

Finamac may provide, upon request, layout suggestions for machine positioning and the technical requirements necessary for proper operation. However, the final technical design of the location must be developed by the entrepreneur through a qualified professional familiar with local legislation.
