Massachusetts-based ice cream franchise Baskin-Robbins is opening another Gainesville storefront. The development will operate underneath The Hub Apartments at 1111 W University Ave. 

According to What Now Jax, the Gainesville development’s franchisee Vishal Patel has not announced an opening date.  

Burt Baskin and Irv Robbins started the business in 1945 by serving up 31 ice cream flavors. With a mission to help customers “seize the yay,” Baskin-Robbins now offers over 1,400 flavors of traditional and innovative ice cream scoops, take-home cartons, cakes, pies and beverages.
