Minority Business Highlight: Liftoff Creamery

Ladies and gentlemen, your captain has turned on the ‘fasten seatbelts’ sign — Liftoff Creamery in Indianapolis is ready for takeoff! Prepare to soar into a delicious world of artisanal ice cream, under the guidance of founder Ryan Lynch.

A commercial airline pilot by trade, Lynch founded the Liftoff Creamery with the intention of combining his passions: ice cream, flying and inspiring young entrepreneurs. The original location at 111 E. 16th St. teaches students the importance of customer service and the value of leadership. The creamery offers a variety of aviation-themed flavors. Amelia Earhart is a strawberry ice cream with diced strawberry chunks, baggage is a banana pudding themed treat and turbulent is a vanilla ice cream blended with Oreo cookies. Other flavors like theory of flight, runway change, and traffic pattern add to the ambience to create a smooth takeoff for all passengers.

In addition to the downtown location, Liftoff Creamer’s sister location in Fountain Square (Square Scoop) also embodies the motto: “Let’s soar to deliciousness.”

While Square Scoop does have the same aviation theme as Liftoff, the old-fashioned candy and board games decorating the walls create a homey feeling that makes the ice cream taste that much better.

Liftoff Creamery offers a selection of 40-50 ice creams that rotate from the 120 unique flavors they have created since their founding in 2020.

Lynch’s extracurriculars expand beyond the stratosphere of ice cream, however. He is also the founder of the National Aviation Youth Resources Foundation, which helps students feel empowered to pursue STEM careers, with an emphasis on aviation.
