History
Unilever began making Good Humor ice cream products in the United States in 1961. In 1992, Unilever acquired Dickie Dee, a Canadian ice cream vending company that sold product from ice cream trucks and tricycle carts. At the time of the sale, there were around 1,500 tricycles in 300 cities. Unilever ended the ice cream bikes in the early 2000s and carts were sold to distributors.[4]
In 1993, Unilever announced it would acquire the Breyers and Sealtest brands from Kraft who, however, retained the name use for non-ice cream products.
Unilever integrated its ice cream division into its main offices in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey in 2007.[5]
