Haagen Dazs
Since its founding in 1960, Haagen Dazs has operated as a stand-alone creamery until the Pillsbury Corporation bought it in 1983. General Mills subsequently purchased Pillsbury in 2001 and is presently the owner of the Haagen Dazs trademark, which is still in operation today.
Because of its rather Danish-sounding name, this firm may seem to be an unexpected addition to our list. On the other hand, the firm's name was created by the company's founders, Reuben and Rose Mattis, who wanted consumers to identify the firm with Denmark's well-regarded milk sector.
Haagen Dazs is probably the most well-known when it comes to luxury brands. In addition to classic varieties like chocolate and vanilla, it serves specialty ice cream flavors like Bananas Foster or Vanilla Swiss Almond that are hard to get elsewhere. In Tilloy-Les-Mofflaines of France, the firm makes most of its goods in a mill owned by General Mills.
