Easy Ice, a provider of ice machine subscription services, has acquired Icesurance, the leasing division of Arctic Glacier, a packaged ice company. The acquisition of Icesurance represents Easy Ice’s sixth strategic acquisition since consumer and distribution-focused private equity firm, Freeman Spogli, recapitalized the company in 2019.

Arctic Glacier is known for its packaged ice services while developing ice machine leasing operations, including branch offices, warehouses, and local operational staff. Easy Ice operates in the ice machine subscription industry and has grown to nearly 30,000 machines across 47 states. The acquisition unites two leaders in the commercial ice machine industry.

“After more than 45 years in business, Arctic Glacier and Icesurance have achieved extraordinary success in the commercial ice machine industry. We’re equipped to continue that legacy,” said Mark Hangen, CEO of Easy Ice. “With this acquisition, we have strengthened our presence in the two largest metropolitan areas in the nation with local resources that enable us to provide best-in-class service to clients in both regions.”
