Ice Cream Van Hire Latest News. Truth about the Business and Industry

Looking for an Ice Cream Van? Lets be honest, everyone knows how terrible certain ice cream vans can be, many do not hold any licence, hygiene certificates or anything of the sort. Too many cow-boy ice cream traders are at large harming this industry and destroying the good reputation us quality Ice Cream Vans build. Too often we are rescuing worried brides and grooms because an unprofessional ice cream trader has let them down last minute, how some traders can do that to a wedding, someones special day, I don't know.

Many people believe that with an Ice Cream Van its just "jump in and go" well I'm here to tell those people that is far from the truth. Dealing with fresh product everyday is a challenge in its own, handling fresh whippy, cones to even bread rolls for hot dogs. Everything has to be monitored, temperature checked and of course CLEAN.
Everyday Our Ice Cream Vans are cleaned from floor to ceiling, inside fridges, whippy machines and everything inside the vans. We run our vans like a professional kitchen should, efficient, clean and properly.

At Roberts Ices we believe in supplying only the very best, legal and safe Ice Cream. Which is what we think every Ice Cream Van should be doing. Many times our customers have come to our vans to tell us about other ice cream vans they have seen and the filthy habits these vans have, which makes us sad that this is happening.
The ice Cream Van has always been a positive place to be, child friendly, and a happy safe environment. Unfortunately this is not the case with many other companies and they know who they are.
But please remember we are not all the same, there are some very good Ice Cream Van Hire Companies out there still and Roberts Ices are proud to be one of them.

Many may frown upon what I am about to say but I am not afraid to speak my mind. The highest percentage of The Ice cream Industry is now owned by foreigners, immigrants who have come to England looking for easy work. This is where things go horribly wrong and hygiene laws are broken and Ice Cream Vans and the industry is frowned upon. Many customers say they would like to be served by someone who can actually speak English, now, I am not blaming the industries fall upon the foreigners there are many reasons why Ice Cream Vans can be an uneasy place to visit especially in London. I also know for a fact that there are many foreigners in our country who have done a fantastic job both in the Ice Cream Trade and others and they too know who they are and I am proud to be friendly with these companies.

Many years ago Ice Cream was much different, but our industry has to move with the times as much as any other, prices of our ingredients go up and up every year and now supermarkets have decided to try and kill us off too. Please, many of us are good people and run good Ice Cream Vans, understand we cannot do our lollies at prices the same as supermarkets because its impossible for us. The Price of Milk and Sugar also means Whippy is far more expensive that ever before so to carry on serving this rare and tasty treat, we need to charge for it. OK, many companies again in London or the coast will try to totally rip you off and this is when yes you shouldn't have to pay stupid prices. Us normal Ice Cream Traders will give you the best prices we can but remember this, we too have families to feed, houses to keep and lives to live. This is OUR living and income its all we have.

Roberts Ices would like to assure customers and everyone else we do run a top of the range company we have more than the required certificates and licences. We serves fresh food everyday and at good prices. We love this industry, help us love it for what it should be.
