Baskin-Robbins
Founded in 1945 in Glendale, California by
Burton Baskin and Irvine Robbins, Baskin-
Robbins has been scooping up sweet
indulgences in Canada since 1971. Today,
96 locations across Ontario, Quebec, Brit-
ish Columbia, and Alberta serve a variety
of soft-serve and frozen treats.
Worldwide, more than 7,800 shops in
50 countries serve 300 million customers
each year. Founder Irv Robbins’ philoso-
phy, “We sell fun, not ice cream,” is still a
hallmark of the brand today.
A strong global brand with decades
of experience and a focus on continual
product development, the franchise offers
many benefits to prospective franchisees.
Initially, the concept offered 31 fla-
vours, one for every day of the month.
Today, a recipe roster of 1,300 options
graces its flavour library. In fact, the Pra-
lines 'n Cream flavour was created by Irv
Robbins and his wife Irma in their home
kitchen in 1970.
Since then, the Baskin-Robbins culi-
nary innovation team has launched many
new products, including gourmet cakes,
eye-catching seasonal ice cream cake
designs, and frozen yogurt and light ice
cream options. The variety allows the
franchise to maintain a strong market
presence when things cool in slower
