Overview
Reddyice® was born of simple beginnings, an ice company staffed by hard working folks with a desire to please their customers. Providing a product people needed at a fair price and with excellent service was a recipe for success. As the business of ice making progressed from an industry based on animal power and harvesting ice from rivers in winter, to a technology based industry with the capacity for year-round production, Reddyice® was there.

Who we are:

Reddyice® has a nationwide presence, three times larger than our nearest competitor, servicing approximately 82,000 customer locations in 31 states and the District of Columbia. To accomplish this, our 58 manufacturing facilities are capable of producing approximately 17 thousand tons of ice daily. In addition to our manufacturing facilities we have a network of 52 distribution centers, which together distribute through all significant channels to supermarkets, convenience stores, club and mass merchandisers, drug outlets, restaurants, special entertainment events, commercial users and the agricultural sector. Reddyice® also owns 2 cold storage warehouses.
