National ice cream chain opening location in Trussville

Bruster’s Real Ice Cream is opening a Trussville location.

The national chain, which has more than 200 locations in 22 states, is scheduled to open its newest at 445 Main St. in Trussville Thursday, Nov. 30.

It’s the chain’s eighth Alabama location, and its third in the Birmingham area, joining Vestavia Hills and the Caldwell Mill Road location.

The shop offers 24 rotating flavors of ice cream, as well as Italian ice, sorbet, sundaes, splits, cakes and pies, as well as specialty items.

The Pennsylvania-based brand produces its proprietary mix of ice cream from a dairy in Titusville, Penn. The company boasted sales of $106 million in 2021, with 8 consecutive years of same-store sales increases and same-store sales growth in 39 of its last 41 quarters.
