TYPE OF BUSINESS: Historical Dave’s Popcorn and Carmelcorn. Established over 60 years ago in Minneapolis. Famous for their popcorn selection, flavors are plain, carmel, cheese, herb, triple mix and chocolate. They also serve ice cream and ice cream drinks, shaved ice, hot dogs, nachos and assorted beverages. Owners work full-time jobs – their two children work the business.

A new owner could be open more days (and months) and more hours.  Owners have been approached to set up at farmers markets, corporate events, graduations, weddings, etc. New owner could offer other food-related items with very little expense. This is easy-to-operate, lucrative operation.
