Betty Rae’s is adding a fourth location to its growing ice-cream empire.
The latest is planned for Merriam Town Center, which is also home to a Cinemark movie theater and a Dick’s Sporting Goods, among other big-box chains. The address is 5740 Antioch Road.
In addition to serving 26 flavors of ice cream, the new Betty Rae’s will be home to a production facility and a test kitchen. It will rotate flavors monthly so that customers can give feedback on flavors being tested and considered for retail sale.
They’re aiming to open in late May, according to a release.
David Friesen and Mary Nguyen opened the ice cream shop at 7140 Wornall Road in Waldo in 2016, later adding a River Market location at 412 Delaware St.
Matt Shatto of Shatto Milk Co. acquired Betty Rae’s in May. He has since opened an Olathe location and made pints of the shop’s ice cream available at local grocery stores.
