Thrifty Ice Cream Newsroom

Thrifty Ice Cream is a California-born tradition that has been part of family celebrations for generations. From the first scoop in 1940 to the present day, the brand has remained committed to its roots in Hollywood and its production home in El Monte. By prioritizing affordable prices and iconic flavors, Thrifty has earned its place as a trusted community favorite. We believe that great ice cream shouldn't be a luxury, and we continue to serve the same "perfect scoop" that has made us a household name for decades.
