A recent contestant on the CNBC show "Make Me a Millionaire Inventor" unveiled an automated Sno-Cone kiosk concept. Now, kiosk manufacturer AVT Inc, which appeared on the show, plans to engineer the kiosk, according to a press release.

On the show, the kiosk inventors were mentored by AVT founder Shannon Illingworth, who helped them develop the concept. After the inventors received funding, they turned to AVT for engineering support to mass produce the kiosk.

"I like to align myself with people that have a real passion for their business," Illingworth said in the release. "My goal is to provide entrepreneurs with manufacturing expertise and industry insight, along with the resources they need to help turn their dreams into a reality."

AVT has engineered custom vending kiosks in the past, such as Farmer's Fridge and Burrito Box.

"I believe this could be a huge hit. The inventors are wonderful people with great passion, and I look forward to helping them build a successful business," Illingworth said. "Besides, who doesn't want a Sno-Cone on a hot day?"
