CNBC reported on the 26th (local time) that an ice cream shop opened by a woman in her 30s with her mother from Harvard University, one of America’s most prestigious universities, made a jackpot of 1.86 million dollars (2.5 billion won) in annual sales.
CNBC then introduced the story of Annie Park, who runs an ice cream shop.
Annie was born in Seoul, South Korea, and immigrated to the United States with her mother in 2000 when she was 9 years old.
After graduating from high school, Annie went to Boston College, graduating in 2013 with a Bachelor of Music and Communications degree.
There, Annie taught and this experience led her to earn a master’s degree in education from Johns Hopkins University. In 2015 she enrolled in a one-year program at Harvard University to earn a master’s degree in policy and she graduated in 2016.
But Annie realized she “didn’t like policy work at all.”
At that time, I opened an ice cream shop at the suggestion of my mother who ran a small restaurant.
He said, “I didn’t pay much attention when I first heard of the ice cream shop,” he said. “But my mother asked for help, so I just followed her will.”
He explained that his mother usually made ice cream, and often introduced new flavors by combining apricots and pistachios, and added cherries in rose water to the ice cream. Annie added that as a result of selling the product on a trial basis, it captivated the taste of Americans.
Unlike commercial ice cream, which relies on syrups with food coloring and flavor added, his mother used only natural ingredients, such as real strawberries, instead of strawberry flavor, he stressed.
Annie recalled that time, “After months of preparation, the ‘Sarah Homemade Ice Cream’ shop opened in March 2019, and it was a success.” “It was something no one expected,” he said.
A second store of Sarah’s Homemade Ice Cream is now open, Annie said, and plans to open a third store in Potomac, Maryland, in December. Annie currently has 35 employees.
