Baskin-Robbins

Baskin-Robbins – The World’s Favorite Ice Cream Franchise

Founded in 1945 by brothers-in-law Burt Baskin and Irv Robbins, Baskin-Robbins revolutionized dessert culture with its iconic “31 flavors” concept — offering a new flavor for every day of the month. What began as two family-run ice cream shops in California has grown into the world’s largest specialty ice cream chain, with 8,000+ stores in over 50 countries.

Franchise-First Business Model

Baskin-Robbins operates on a 100% franchised structure, making it a brand powered by entrepreneurs. Every location is locally owned, while the corporate team provides full training, marketing support, supply chain access, and site development guidance. Flexible store formats (standalone, kiosks, co-branded with Dunkin’) allow franchisees to adapt to urban hubs, malls, and high-footfall zones with ease. With an investment starting from $90,000 USD, it offers an affordable entry point into a globally recognized brand.
