Summary

Andy's Frozen Custard is a Springfield, Missouri frozen dessert franchisor headquartered at 3211 E Water Street. The family business was founded in 1986 by Andy and Carol Kuntz, who opened their first custard stand in Osage Beach before moving the company to Springfield, where it grew under the leadership of their son Andy and his wife Dana. The brand's stands feature walk-up windows and drive-thru lanes, red-and-white stands and a menu centered on frozen custard made fresh throughout the day. Menu items include concretes blended thick with mix-ins, sundaes such as the Jackhammer with a hot fudge or caramel core, shakes, malts and seasonal flavors. Andy's emphasizes quick service and stands are open for lunch and dinner into late evening. A typical stand offers roughly 10 seats in about 1,500 square feet, with most guests ordering from the window or drive-thru. The system blends company-operated and franchised stands. It reaches from the Ozarks across the South, the Southwest and the Southeast, with a growing presence in the Midwest and Mountain West.

The Restaurant Enterprise Index focuses primarily on companies with a substantial role in restaurant operations. Investment firms, financial sponsors, and other ownership partners are generally not included unless they also play a meaningful operating role; an otherwise qualifying entity may also be omitted when sufficient reliable information is unavailable.

The ownership hierarchy follows the entity structure from the bottom up, showing the profiled entity in relation to its parent organizations, including its ultimate parent. When the entity owns or operates concepts beneath it, up to three are displayed.

Verify Our Data Methodology

  • Foundation: Active state business registries form the primary backbone of every record.
  • Sources: Publicly available filings throughout, including public Franchise Disclosure Documents (FDDs).
  • Integrity: Zero proprietary third-party databases utilized.
  • Verification: Entity/concept records are validated at the source by our in-house research team.

Leveraging Human-Verified Connections

  • Collection: Filings and public records are gathered through intake procedures.
  • Verification: In-house researchers review every record before it enters the database.
  • Ownership Chain: Where relationships can be established, researchers work upward from a concept headquarters or single concept through parent, grandparent, and ultimate parent, resolving operators into one connected structure.

Maintaining the Longitudinal Record

  • Duration: Continuous tracking since 1997. Twenty-nine years of unit-level history.
  • Method: Same methodology applied across the full period so year-over-year comparisons hold.
  • Change Tracking: Openings, closures, ownership transfers, and operator consolidation are recorded as they occur, not backfilled.
  • Result: Expansion and contraction trends visible over decades, not snapshots.
