[Editor's note: This story has been updated to reflect that Nico Vergara worked at Zeds Real Fruit Ice Cream before launching his business. And it all started with a small New Zealand-style "real fruit" ice cream cart in Portland, Oregon. Vergara helped manage a business, Zed's Real Fruit Ice Cream, that used the machine before starting his own in 2021. Most of that revenue — $473,000 — came solely from Nico's Ice Cream. One piece of equipment was particularly important: the ice cream blender, made by a Hope, New Zealand-based company called Little Jem.

Today, Nico's Ice Cream includes two brick-and-mortar locations in Portland and pints sold in about 60 grocery stores across Oregon and Washington. Within a year, one ice cream cart became two brick-and-mortar locations, a Mexican restaurant and a cafe that closed almost as quickly as it opened. Most of that revenue — $473,000 — came solely from Nico's Ice Cream. One piece of equipment was particularly important: the ice cream blender, made by a Hope, New Zealand-based company called Little Jem. Vergara, working at one of his two Nico's Ice Cream locations.
