Village Ice Cream is an independently owned, local batch ice cream business in Calgary, Alberta, founded and owned by Billy Friley and his wife, Tetiana. Founded in 2012, the company operates five locations across Calgary, focusing on creating a community-focused,, premium, small-batch ice cream experience.
Froneri was established in 2016 as a joint venture between Nestlé and PAI Partners to combine the two companies' ice cream activities. PAI Partners had previously acquired R&R Ice Cream in 2013. R&R was originally founded as Richmond Ice Cream in 1985.
The very first shop opened up in 2012 in a plain old building on an almost impossible to find cul-de-sac in Victoria Park. Nearly a decade and five locations later, Village Ice Cream joins the vibrant neighbourhoods of Victoria Park, Britannia Plaza, Garrison Corner, Bridgeland, and University District.
