Coley's Cooler

10/04/2020

This might be the hardest message I’ve had to write on our page. Today we have officially sold our last truck😞. It has been a tear jerker to say the least but a blessing that they all went to become new dreams for those who purchased them. We’ve met some really great people in the process of selling all five trucks and our large freezer. One truck headed to Kentucky, another to Tennessee, two went to different homes in Wisconsin, and finally one ended up in downtown Chicago. All five with different plans but all with one thing in common, the love for ice cream! We would like to thank you all, again, for your patronage all these years. We are truly blessed to have had the opportunities we were able to share with all of you. We are forever grateful and will never forget the memories. May the future welcome you with good health, good fortune, and good ice cream!

It’s been a bitter sweet week. Our trucks are slowly finding new homes as we are selling them to people around the country that share the same love of ice cream as we do. It’s so great to see how excited people are to start their new business venture with one of our trucks. We had one go to Kentucky, another to Tennessee, and now another will be headed to a family in Chicago. Each person has a different story and a different reason but we all are sharing the common idea that we love the ice cream and how happy it makes people. With that being said, we have only one more truck. This is the last opportunity for someone to carry on the tradition of Coleys Cooler in Boone and Winnebago County. If you are interested in a package price for one truck and all the business identity to go with it, please message us right away. The investment is well worth it for such an established business. The memories are priceless! Please message us right away for a showing.

If you are interested in being your own boss by owning your own ice cream truck, contact us today. We are selling the business as a whole or entertaining offers of selling things individually. We would love to see the tradition continue on with new owners coming together as one. Let us know how we can make your dream of ownership a reality.

We are overwhelmed, touched, moved, and down right emotional wrecks over the heart warming comments we have received from our customers. Thank you all so much for showing the love.

Many people have asked if the business is for sale and the short answer is YES! We have not put a number to it yet but working on it now and will be entertaining offers as well. For more information, please private message us with your contact information and we will stay in touch. Our first approach will be to sell the business as a turn key operation and as a whole. We currently are not interested in selling it off in pieces. We hope that the business will continue to thrive with new owners. Thank you all again and we are incredibly grateful!

After 9 years of serving in Boone and Winnebago counties, Coley's Cooler ice cream trucks will not be reopening this summer. It has been a fantastic ride along the way! We will absolutely treasure the wonderful memories of driving through neighborhoods and seeing the joy on the kid's faces, some even jumping for joy with anticipation, as we turned onto each street. Thank you for letting us be a part of your summer evenings, birthday parties, company picnics, weddings and so many other celebrations. We are truly grateful for your patronage over the years!

We started Coley's Cooler for our children who needed a summer job in high school and early college years. The crazy things you do for your kids…Haha! Now they are all grown up. Our oldest, Nicole "Coley", is married and starting a family of her own. We are looking forward to our next job title as “Grandparents”…eta July 2020! Our son, Michael, has graduated college and currently lives in Florida. We admit, he is our excuse for frequent “weekend getaways” to go visit him! Our youngest, Rachel, will graduate from college this spring with a double bachelor’s degree. Finally after 20 years of juggling school schedules, it will come to a bitter-sweet end.

Many thanks to all of our employees we have had over the years…but especially Angelica Hall. She has been with us from the beginning and has managed our fleet of trucks solo the past few seasons. We appreciate all the hours, phone calls, emails, late nights and long weekends you have devoted to Coley’s Cooler!

But most importantly, we THANK YOU, our customers, friends, and families for supporting us! We hope you have enjoyed our ice cream trucks as much as we have. This was a difficult decision to make, but we will still see you all around town and most likely at our business Automotive Solutions.

We wish you all a wonderful summer!
Tom, Sherry and the Abraham Family
