02/28/2019
Founded in 1967, The ICEE Company is the leader and innovator in the frozen beverage industry. The company plans to establish its headquarters at 265 Mason Road in La Vergne.
“The ICEE Company is absolutely thrilled to be moving to Tennessee,” CEO and President Dan Fachner said. “During our 50-plus years, we have grown an incredible family of hard-working people that love this company and our brands, and we are looking forward to continuing that heritage and culture in our new home. We can’t wait to create new memories and traditions in Tennessee.”
“Every kid and every parent in America has craved an ICEE at one point or another, and now we’re so excited that this iconic company has chosen to call Tennessee home,” Governor Bill Lee said. “Tennessee is home to many major internationally recognized brand names, and we’re so proud to add ICEE to our list. This is great news for La Vergne and our entire state.”
“We’ve made a concerted effort to make Tennessee a place where companies want to invest, grow and create jobs,” Department of Economic and Community Development Commissioner Bob Rolfe said. “The ICEE Company’s decision to bring its corporate headquarters to La Vergne highlights how Tennessee’s low taxes, skilled workforce and quality of life continue to attract world-class businesses.”
“With our top-rated school district, affordable cost of living and strong local economy, companies like The ICEE Company are choosing to relocate and put down roots in our community,” Rutherford County Mayor Bill Ketron said. “On behalf of Rutherford County, I am pleased to welcome ICEE and look forward to partnering with their team.”
“The ICEE Company’s decision to relocate its corporate headquarters to the City of La Vergne is a testament to our community’s ability to retain the high-quality talent that enables growing companies to compete in the marketplace,” City of La Vergne Mayor Jason Cole said. “Thanks to world-class institutions like Motlow State Community College, Middle Tennessee State University and companies like ICEE, we are creating jobs today while ensuring the future of La Vergne is even stronger than its past.”
“We are thrilled The ICEE Company has chosen Rutherford County for its headquarters,” Bill Jones, Chairman of the Rutherford County Industrial Development Board and chairman of Destination Rutherford, said. “This announcement further demonstrates the attractive business environment that we offer. With a large, skilled workforce and our significant investment in talent development, Rutherford County is uniquely positioned to partner with ICEE.”
