Modern Ice Cream

Modern Ice Cream is located out in Vill- Khanjadapur. We are right by the Birshibpur post office area in Uluberia. It’s a bit of a trek for some, but for the locals, we’re just around the corner. We started this because there wasn’t much else like it nearby. Running a shop in a village area has its own set of challenges, like making sure the power stays steady for the freezers. We’ve spent many hours worrying about the temperature. It’s a simple setup we have here. We don't have a big staff, so you'll usually see the same faces every time you visit. We make the ice cream and sell it right from the same spot. It’s a lot of lifting and cleaning, but that’s what it takes. We don’t use any high-tech systems, just some basic ledgers and a lot of manual labor. Sometimes the delivery truck gets delayed, and we have to adjust our plans for the day. That's just part of the job. People in Khanjadapur are nice and they’ve supported us since we opened up. We aren't trying to be the biggest company out there. We just want to make sure people in the Uluberia area have something cold to eat during the summer months. It’s a modest living, and we’re happy enough with how things are going. The road can get a bit muddy during the rainy season, so we spend more time mopping the floor than we'd like.
