Unilever Ice Cream

Unilever may have lost its crown as the world's biggest manufacturer of ice cream to Nestle in 2006, but it remains a global giant with operations in more than 40 countries worldwide, and a stronger presence than its rival outside North America. Created from the acquisition of a patchwork of local businesses over many years, the group operates under numerous different corporate names in different countries, including Wall's, Langnese, Algida, Ola and others. However all sell the company's international blockbuster products, such as Magnum, Cornetto, Solero and Viennetta. The individual regional businesses have also gradually been aligned under the global "heartbrand" umbrella. Premium brand Ben & Jerry's operates as a separate unit. Unilever's frozen foods business was sold in 2006 and is now Birds Eye Iglo. See also:
