"It is no coincidence that all the top water ice and ice cream stores in the Delaware Valley chose Sentry for all of their equipment needs, including water ice batch freezers and soft serve ice cream machines. And just as they chose Sentry, so did La Vita Dolce. Along with state-of-the-art equipment, Sentry also offers incomparable service to its customers. So, when you think Italian Water Ice and/or ice cream, be sure to put Sentry at the top of the list."
