    Zillah welcomes new Sweet Sister's Ice Cream Shop in Historic Downtown

    ZILLAH, Wash. -- Zillah's Historic Downtown is getting a bit sweeter with its new addition of Sweet Sister's Ice Cream shop.

    Sweet Sister's Ice Cream will be located at 622 Second Avenue and is the first stand-alone ice cream shop in Zillah and the company's second location in the Yakima Valley.

    “Thank you to the community and to the staff at the City of Zillah staff,” said Michael Zuniga, Sweet Sisters Co-Owner.” We thank you for everything you have done welcoming us with open arms. We are blessed to be in the city and look forward to providing good services and sweet treats.”

    “The arrival of Sweet Sisters Ice Cream isn't just about delicious treats, it's a testament to the success of our ongoing revitalization efforts. We're actively working to create a thriving historic downtown environment that attracts exciting businesses like these, and keeps residents coming back for more,” said Mayor Scott Carmack. “We are excited to support and grow our businesses while preserving the ‘hometown’ feeling we enjoy today.”

    Zillah recently completed a Historic Downtown Revitalization Plan which aims to support existing businesses and get new ones to join them downtown. Zillah began the implementation phase to create a welcoming area for families, friends and visitors.

    To continue its revitalization plan, Zillah will be remodeling the streetscape to make it pedestrian-friendly and better connect with Zillah's unique identity.

    “Sweet Sisters isn't just bringing ice cream to Zillah, they're bringing a scoop of community spirit,” said City Administrator Michael Grayum. “Their decision to open a second shop here speaks volumes about the positive momentum building in our downtown. It's especially fitting to celebrate this grand opening during National Small Business Week when we focus on the vital role small businesses play in the vibrancy of our community.”
