After successfully selling 50 units, the factory starts generating $3,000 a day.

The Cherry Popper Ice Cream Factory also serves as the primary location in the mission "Loose Ends". In the mission, Tommy is informed of a "valuable exchange" taking place on the roof of the Cherry Popper Ice Cream Factory between the Sharks and men in black suits. He is then ordered to kill everyone involved, take the merchandise and take it to an unnamed helipad at Escobar International Airport. Tommy enters the compound at the back of the factory, kills everybody involved and gradually works his way to the roof. He kills the men involved in the exchange, steals the merchandise and, using the nearby Maverick, he successfully takes the merchandise to the helipad.

The top of the building has two large mounds of ice cream, resembling a pair of woman's breasts.
