An Ice Cream Maker Licks A Cold-Shipping Challenge

Dippin' Dots shows that even tiny innovations can add up to big savings. Dippin' Dots, a manufacturer of a unique form of ice cream, needed a way to ship party packs overnight. In 2007, the company began using UPS's dry ice shipping service. The Paducah, Ky.-based company saved $50,000. UPS now accepts dry ice domestic air shipments under IATA and 49 CFR regulations, which make the process simpler, faster and sometimes less costly for you.
