Question that came in:
Is Magnolia Ice Cream in the USA Owned by Magnolia Philippines?
Answer:
No, it is not.
Magnolia Ice Cream USA is owned by Ramar Foods, the Northern California company that pirated the Magnolia ice-cream brand’s logo from the Philippines.
History:
The Philippine company San Miguel created and developed the Magnolia ice-cream brand in the 1920s.
In the early 1970s, a completely unaffiliated family in California started marking their own ice-cream with the Magnolia mark in order to hoodwink Filipino Americans into thinking they were somehow related or the same.
