Sweet Treats Youth Entrepreneurship Program

HELP YOUR CHILD BUILD A REAL BUSINESS

Everything they need to launch their own mobile ice cream business, with parent-supported training, equipment, branding and ongoing guidance.

Our Origin Story

It Started With One 10-Year-Old Entrepreneur.

When 10-year-old Gus launched his mobile ice cream bike in Martensville, Saskatchewan, he didn't just sell frozen treats — he learned how to run a real business. From building the bike, prices and managing inventory to customer service and daily bookkeeping, Gus built real-world confidence through hands-on practice and the help of his parents.

That inspiring success grew into Sweet Treats Youth Entrepreneurs: a complete, parent-backed program that provides young Canadians with the opportunity to build their own profitable summer business.
