A lot of people ask me how much it costs to open a small ice cream shop. Today I'm going to share how much it cost for me to open up my first ice cream shop so you can have a reference point. Know that the overall cost is different in each country and city. Just like how the licensing and permits will be different in my city and yours. But the different buckets of costs I go through will give you the general idea what you need to account for and budget for. So if you're looking to start a frozen dessert business, an ice cream parlour, small food business, keep on watching!
