Gourt Home::Gourt :: Heartbrand
The Heartbrand companies are a number of ice-cream companies operated by the Anglo-Dutch firm Unilever. Though they all have different names, they are referred to as the "Heartbrand" companies, since in general the only branding they have in common is a heart-shaped logo. They generally manufacture the same ice-cream with the same names, with rare occasions of regional availability, under different brands. Some of these ice-creams include Magnum, Cornetto, Viennetta and Solero. A list of some of these brands is shown below:
- Algida - Greece/Hungary/Italy/Poland/Turkey/Slovakia/Czech Republic
- Bresler - Chile
- Eskimo - Austria
- Frigo - Spain
- Frisko - Denmark
- GB Glace - Sweden/Finland
- Good Humor - United States of America
- HB - Ireland
- HB Wall's - Northern Ireland
- Holanda - Mexico
- Kibon - Brazil/Argentina (Note: before the acquisition of Kibon, Unilever sold ice-cream in Brazil under the brand Gelato, with a logo similar to the one Good Humor used before the Heartbrand)
- Kwality Wall's - India
- Langnese - Germany
- Lusso - Switzerland
- Miko - France
- Pinguino - Ecuador
- Hertog Ola - Netherlands (selected products)
- Ola - Belgium/Netherlands/Portugal/South Africa
- Selecta - Philippines
- Streets - Australia
- Strauss - Israel (Note: Unilever owns 51% of Strauss Ice Cream; the remaining 49% is owned by the local Elite-Strauss corporation)
- Tio Rico - Venezuela
- Wall's - Great Britain and parts of Asia
Prior to the heart logo, the Heartbrand ice cream had a different logo, consisting of a blue circle with the local brand's name over a background of red stripes. This was not universally used for all the countries listed above (Wall's in the UK, for example, used a yellow logo with Wall's in blue text), while many brands were shared across different countries.
