Fat Jack’s Supersubs will soon serve as a one-stop shop for lovers of both sub sandwiches and Salted Oreo ice cream. The sandwich chain is selling pints of Little Man Ice Cream’s most popular flavors, including Space Junkie, 16th Street Chocolate and Salted Oreo at all five of its Denver locations. The ice cream will be available for both in-store and delivery orders.
To promote the new partnership, Fat Jack’s will give away 1,000 pints of ice cream across all five of its stores starting today. One free pint will be included with the purchase of a sub (one per order) while supplies last.
“With our LoHi store being right down the street from Little Man, we have developed a great relationship with them,” said Fat Jack’s Marketing Director Megan Adams. “We are obsessed with their delicious ice cream and are so excited to offer it with our subs. It’s a perfect pairing.”
Although Little Man has just one location in Denver’s Lower Highland neighborhood, the ice cream maker has been able to expand its imprint by partnering with other retailers. The company’s products are now sold in close to 30 restaurants and coffee shops in the metro-area.
“We have had great success aligning ourselves with like-minded brands that embrace the importance of high-quality, locally-sourced food,” said Little Man General Manger Loren Martinez. “Fat Jack’s is a great example of that and we are thrilled to be collaborating with them.”
Founded in 2000, Fat Jack’s has locations near the University of Denver, in Lowry, as well as in Denver’s Capitol Hill, Stapleton, and LoHi neighborhoods. The chain plans to open its sixth location in the Five Points area later this year.
Housed in a 28-foot steel replica of an old-fashioned milk can in Denver’s historic Highland neighborhood, Little Man Ice Cream opened in 2008. More than just an ice cream emporium, the shop serves as a community gathering point, hosting vintage movie screenings, musical performances and seasonal celebrations. Little Man also helps fight hunger through its “Scoop for Scoop” initiative. For every scoop of ice cream the shop sells, one scoop of rice is donated to villages in developing countries. Donations have been made in Ethiopia, Kenya, Myanmar, Senegal, Haiti and Peru. Most recently, Little Man had donated over 22,000 lbs of rice and 400 pairs of shoes in communities in Cambodia.
Since 2008, the shop has donated more than 1 million scoops. For his commitment to the community, Little Man Owner Paul Tamburello was honored 2013 with the Georgia R. Imhoff Philanthropist Award.
