Soft Serve Machine Trade-In Program

If you’re thinking of getting new froyo machines to replace older units, we’ve partnered with PASMO America to bring you a new trade-in program. Our members will receive a credit of up to $2,500 per soft serve machine and an assorted case of The Frozen Bean/Gelato Labs/Sunkist flavors when they trade in their old soft serve machines. The credit is good towards the purchase of a new PASMO soft serve machine, as well as spoons, straws, or cups from Frozen Solutions.

PASMO machines have the same dimensions as either Taylor or Stoelting, so they will fit right in the same spot without any changes to your store. Known for their quiet operation and energy efficiency, PASMO soft serve machines are engineered with high-end motors rather than belts; their power consumption, ease of use, and noise are much lower than the competition.

PASMO machines come with a 12-month warranty and training.

Corporate chains that have traded old soft serve machines for new PASMO machines include TCBY, 16 Handles, and Yogurt Mountain.
