OUR STORY

This is the heartwarming story of Chuy and Alex, two individuals whose lives were intertwined through their shared passion for ice cream. It all began in 1993 when Chuy opened his first ice cream shop in Huamantla, Mexico, on the very same day he arrived in town. Little did he know that this humble beginning would mark the start of something truly special. After marrying Rebecca, Chuy and his wife moved to the United States, where he pursued a career in construction. But the memories of making ice cream in Mexico never left his heart.

Recognizing the incredible possibilities, Alex presented the opportunity to Chuy, who agreed that he should seize it. With Chuy's blessings and a hands-off approach, Alex embarked on a new chapter.
