Jeremiah’s Italian Ice to open first Arizona shop in Chandler

PHOENIX — A Florida-based Italian ice company is set to make its Arizona debut next month and plans to expand throughout metro Phoenix over the next few years.

Jeremiah’s Italian Ice will open its first Arizona store in Chandler near Alma School and Ocotillo roads in late April, according to a press release.

“We are so excited to give the people of Arizona their first taste of Jeremiah’s Italian Ice,” Jeremy Litwack, Jeremiah’s founder and CEO, said in the release. “Our treats deliver a creamy, smooth and decadent flavor experience that is sure to be welcomed in the Arizona heat.”

The company launched franchising opportunities in 2019 and has since announced plans for 80 locations across four states, including 15 in Arizona.

The sweet treat shop has been in business since 1996 and offers more than 40 flavors of Italian ice in addition to soft serve ice cream.
