Owning a frozen drink business in Colorado was never on our bingo card — but sometimes the best opportunities are the ones you don’t see coming.
For years, we tossed around business ideas, searching for something that truly fit both of our strengths and passions. Although we went to high school together and grew up in nearby small Iowa towns, we never imagined that a decade after graduation we would reconnect, get married, start a family — and eventually build a business together.
With Derek’s 20+ years of experience in healthcare and healthcare leadership and Ashley’s 20+ years in small business marketing and design, we’ve combined strategy, creativity, and heart to build Chillco Drinks into what it is today.
What started as a shared dream has grown into a business we’re incredibly proud of — one that brings people together and adds a little extra fun to every gathering.
