I sell ice, which I've been doing for nearly 35 years. In the past, because not every home had a refrigerator, people were forced to buy ice to keep their drinking water cool during the summer. I've been involved with ice-making since that time. This desire grew with me, and because of this, I decided to sell ice. In 1990, we bought an ice-making machine and began producing ice. But because we were new to our profession, we had neither knowledge nor experience in selling ice. We would put the ice in containers and walk around the streets selling it. In the beginning, we could only do this much, but over time, we gathered experience in the business, and now I make ice every day. In the summer months, our work increases because the demand for ice is greater. I make ice in square and round shapes, then ride my motorcycle to my customers' doors and deliver it to them. Ice is something special to me, not just a cooling factor. Because of my love and dedication to my work, those who know me well call me 'Father of Ice.' I'm happy with my work - we now have our own brand in the ice business and have become so established in our profession that we can say we've become the best ice producer in Amed. ...
