Icy-O company history

Preserved background

Archive documentation notes that Icy-O made machines for Coca-Cola, Dr.

Pepper and possibly others during the middle to late 1920's. Their original manufacturing plant was located in Atlanta, Georgia but relocted to Charlotte, North Carolina only after a year of operation.

What the machine archive shows

Evidence by model and date

The dated archive currently runs from Icy-O 120 (Mid to late 1920's) through Icy-O Countertop (Late 1920's). It contains 3 model records, 3 with recorded production dates and 3 with surviving model-specific photography.

The documented production footprint is distributed across 1920s (3). These totals describe this archive—not necessarily the company’s complete output—and will change if additional period records are recovered.

Research note: Profile scope is 3 archived machine records. Company background was independently restated from the site’s preserved manufacturer overview; view the archived source. Dates, photographs, and model counts come from the linked records. Where the preserved evidence is incomplete, the page says so instead of filling gaps with conjecture.
