Magnolia Ice Cream
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Magnolia is a brand of ice cream and dairy products owned by San Miguel Corporation (SMC). The brand was commercially established by SMC (then known as
San Miguel Brewery) in 1925. From its core products of ice cream and milk, the brand expanded into frozen desserts, butter, margarine and processed cheese and operated as the Magnolia Division of San Miguel
Corporation until 1996. After a brief spin­off of the ice cream and milk business from 1996 to 1998 (and its hibernation from 1998 to 2003), these products were combined once again under one corporation in 2004 ­
Magnolia, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of San
Miguel Pure Foods Company, Inc. The Magnolia brand name is also used by other SMC companies for various food and beverage products.

History
The history of the Magnolia brand can be traced back to 1899 when an American by the name of William J.
Schober arrived in the Philippines as a cook in the volunteer army and introduced the “magnolia pie”,
“magnolia ice cream” and “magnolia ice­drop”.[1] In 1925, Schober sold his business interests to SMC
(then known as San Miguel Brewery). The dairy plant at 526 Calle Aviles in the San Miguel district of
Manila stood on the same street as the original San Miguel brewery (6 Calle Aviles). A year later, the dairy

was relocated to Calle Echague (now C. Palanca Sr., Street) in Quiapo, Manila.[2] In 1970, production was transferred to a new modern facility in Aurora Boulevard, Quezon City, known as the Magnolia Dairy
Products Plant. The facility also housed the main branch of its Magnolia ice cream parlor.[3]
In 1981, SMC spun off its butter and margarine production to a new subsidiary named Philippine Dairy
Products Corporation (PDPC – now known as, Magnolia, Inc.), a joint­venture with New Zealand Dairy
Board, with its production facility based in the Aurora Boulevard plant.
In 1996, SMC transferred its ice cream and milk businesses to a new company, Magnolia­Nestlé
Corporation, a joint­venture with Nestlé. SMC retained ownership of the Magnolia brand since it was also being used by other SMC products. SMC also retained ownership of the Aurora Boulevard property. In
1998, SMC withdrew from the Magnolia­Nestlé venture and a non­compete clause barred it from the ice cream and milk businesses for five years. Upon the expiration of the non­compete clause in 2004, SMC revived its ice cream and milk businesses through its subsidiary, Magnolia, Inc.[4] On May 19, 2010,
Magnolia, Inc. inaugurated its main ice cream production facility in Santa Rosa, Laguna.[5][6]

Magnolia, Inc.
Magnolia, Inc. was established in 1981 under the name Philippine Dairy Products Corporation (PDPC), a joint­venture between SMC and New Zealand Dairy Board (NZDB). The company was a business unit of
SMC's Magnolia Division and engaged in the manufacture of butter, margarine and processed cheese. Its production facility was originally located in the Magnolia Dairy Products plant in Aurora Boulevard,
Quezon City. In 1994, PDPC acquired the margarine brands, Star and Dari Creme, from Procter & Gamble
Philippines, Inc. In 2000, the company transferred its production from the Aurora Boulevard facility to a new facility in General Trias, Cavite. In July 2002, SMC gained full ownership of the company after NZDB divested its stake. With this, the company name was changed to Magnolia, Inc. and became a subsidiary of
San Miguel Pure Foods Company, Inc., the new corporate parent for the entire food portfolio of SMC.[7]
Magnolia, Inc. has since diversified from the manufacture of butter, margarine and processed cheese, to include jelly snacks, cooking oil, salad aids and the revived Magnolia ice cream and milk products.

Magnolia Chicken (San Miguel Foods, Inc., a subsidiary of San Miguel Pure Foods Company, Inc.) began in 1953 when the first B­Meg feedmill of the San Miguel Brewery, located in Balintawak, converted by­products of San Miguel's beer production into animal feeds. In 1972, San Miguel’s integrated poultry operations began with its first breeder farm in Cavite. The first chicken processing plant was set up in Muntinlupa in 1973 and marketed under the Magnolia brand. The venture expanded its facilities with two more feedmills, three more breeder farms, hatcheries and another processing plant – thus, creating the Feeds and Livestock Division of San Miguel Corporation. In
1991, the division was spun off, becoming a subsidiary known as San Miguel Foods, Inc. (SMFI). In
2001, San Miguel acquired Pure Foods Corporation (which had a similar division) bringing together the two industry leaders. Pure Foods Corporation was renamed San Miguel Pure Foods Company,
Inc. in 2002, becoming the corporate parent of San Miguel's entire food business portfolio.

Fruit Drink (juice drinks).

Trademark dispute
In the United States, Ramar Foods International, a company founded in 1969 and based in Pittsburg,
California, markets its own line of ice cream under the Magnolia trademark “since 1972”[8] using a brand identity similar to that created and used by San Miguel Corporation (SMC). The company has no connection with SMC. In 2012, Ramar Foods International won a trademark infringement case in the
United States against SMC. However, SMC was allowed to continue exporting its Magnolia line of butter, margarine and cheese to the US. San Miguel sells its ice cream in the US and Canada under the San Miguel
Gold Label brand. Both parties are in the appeals process.[9][10]

Relation to Magnolia (Singapore)
Although similar in name and product line, there is no relation between San Miguel’s Magnolia brand with that of Singapore­based Fraser and Neave Ltd. (F&N), whose Magnolia brand was established in Singapore in 1937 and now known as F&N Magnolia.[11]

Magnolia Ice Cream ­ Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The plant facility located along Aurora Boulevard, Quezon City was inaugurated in 1970 by San Miguel as the Magnolia Dairy Products Plant, producing ice cream, milk, butter, margarine and processed cheese. The property where the plant stood was owned by San Miguel Corporation.
In 1981, San Miguel spun off its butter, margarine and processed cheese assets into a joint­venture with
New Zealand Dairy Board, forming Philippine Dairy Products Corporation (now, Magnolia, Inc.). The
Aurora Boulevard plant remained as its production facility until 2000 when it transferred to a new facility in
General Trias, Cavite.
When San Miguel spun off its ice cream and milk business into a joint­venture with Nestlé in 1996, forming
Magnolia­Nestlé Corporation, the Aurora Boulevard property remained under the ownership of San Miguel and served as the venture's main production facility and site of its ice cream parlor. After San Miguel withdrew from the venture in 1998, Nestlé Philippines continued with the business under the Nestlé brand name (the ice cream parlor became known as Nestlé Creamery). Nestlé’s production was gradually transferred to a new site and in 1999, Nestlé closed down operations in the Aurora Boulevard facility.[12]
In 2008, San Miguel sold the property to Robinsons Land Corporation (RLC), a subsidiary of JG Summit
Holdings, Inc. News reports cited that the property was sold reportedly in the amount of P1.6 billion. The property was developed by RLC into a mall (Robinsons Magnolia) and residential condominiums (The
Magnolia Residences).[13] One of the mall’s establishments is a Magnolia­franchised ice cream parlor named Magnolia Flavor House, as a fitting homage to the property’s roots.[14]

...evaluated the ice cream industry from a Porter’s Five Forces perspective to determine the attractiveness of the market. Next, we observed Amy’s Ice Creams’ strategy through interviews and class concepts to see how Amy’s competes. Then, we assessed the strengths and weaknesses of the company’s strategy to offer recommendations for Amy’s Ice Creams going forward. Production and Sales The biggest activities in the ice cream industry consist of production and sales. In 2011, U.S. manufacturers produced 1.53 billion gallons of ice cream, a 6.5 percent increase from 2009. In addition, U.S. ice cream sellers sold 25.4 billion servings of ice cream and other frozen desserts. This represents a 2.4 percent increase from the previous year, a slight increase after two year of stagnant sales (New Hope 360). There are two channels for ice cream sales. The first channel is food service where customers visit an ice cream parlor and pay a premium for the product. The second channel is retail where customers purchase their favorite brand of ice cream from a retail chain like Wal-Mart.  Food services constitute a larger portion of the two channels accounting for 57 percent of overall ice cream sales (New Hope 360).   Products    The products in the ice cream industry include premium ice creams and novelties.  Premium ice creams include sorbet, sherbet, and fruity flavored ice products packaged by the pint or quart.

...PLAN OF SELECTA ICE CREAM I – EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Selecta’s humble beginnings can be traced to the Arce family’s ice cream parlor in Manila in 1948. Its ice cream was well-known for its creaminess, authentic flavours, and unique gold can packaging—qualities that remained throughout the years.   In 1990, RFM Corporation bought Selecta from the Arce family to form Selecta Dairy Products, Inc. Known for its sharp entrepreneurship, RFM catapulted the rise of Selecta as a serious contender in the ice cream market always ahead in product innovations by creating new and exciting flavours like Cookies and Cream, Halo Halo, Ube Macapuno, and Chocolate Almond Fudge, and supported by heart-warming media campaigns that depict Selecta as an ice cream that creates family bonding moments. In 1997, Selecta became the market leader in the Philippine capital, which accounted for 60% of the nation’s ice cream consumption. In 1999, to complement its frozen novelties category and strengthen itself for competition, RFM teamed up with Unilever, the largest ice cream company in the world to form Selecta Walls Incorporated. The joint-venture proved to be a success and in 2000, Selecta defeats competition to become the national ice cream leader.   And that has been the story since with its passion for exceeding the expectations of consumers, unwavering dedication to quality, and unrelenting quest to improve itself through its innovations, Selecta or Unilever RFM Ice Cream, Inc., sees itself...

Frozen desserts market in India is very small and refers to oil fat (instead of milk fat) based ice creams. Besides, a wider range of frozen desserts is also made in-house and served in 5 star hotels. The ice cream market in India is currently estimated to be 210mn liter valued at Rs 450 crores (MRP Rs9bn). The market growth during the late '80s and in the early '90s was very low at around 2-3% pa. Since the last two years, the market has been witnessing a much faster growth at around 10-12%pa. The growth rate could have been even higher but for poor infrastructure, (still) high excise duty/ sales tax etc. Excise on ice cream was increased from 13% to 16% in the 1999-2000 budget. Market growth historically was stunted by Government policies. Till 1997, ice cream manufacture was reserved for small-scale sector. The leading players were unable to invest adequately to develop an infrastructure of cold chain for storage and distribution. Erratic supply and shortage of power in most parts of the country have been the major factors limiting growth of a cold chain. As a result, there was a dearth of good quality products in the market and also lack of adequate infrastructure to distribute the same. Cadbury had entered the market in 1992 with...

...Ice Cream and Frozen Desserts Industry The global retail ice cream industry revenue is estimated to reach $74 billion by 2018. Favorable demographic factors, rising consumer disposable income, and consumer's awareness toward frozen dessert mainly drive the demand. The retail ice cream industry includes retail sales of classic ice creams and frozen novelties. Classic ice cream includes special ice cream such as low-fat and non-fat, take home, and bulk ice creams. Frozen novelties include flavored ice, sorbet, and frozen yogurt. The industry is moderately capital-intensive as large numbers of players are competing with each other to maintain their place in the market. The classic ice cream segment contributed approximately 80% in global retail ice cream industry in 2012, whereas Nestle and Unilever, the two largest players captured one-third of the total market. New product development and innovation plays an important role as a growth driver for industry. Maintaining price and quality, brand loyalty, and consumer group retention are the biggest challenges for industry due to the large number of competitors in the market. This research indicates that in the future, innovative flavors in ice cream products with focus on health improvement will increase the per-household consumption, thus reflecting an increase in demand.

When he graduated, he became employed with the Waterloo Ice Cream Company and worked there for ten years. Working first as a sales representative, he then became a regional marketing director for southern Ontario. After ten years of travelling for his job, Robert wanted to settle down.

Ice Cream Dessert

...Chapter I Introduction Ice cream is a frozen dessert usually made from dairy products, such as milk and cream, and often combined with fruits or other ingredients and flavors. Most varieties contain sugar, although some are made with other sweeteners. In some cases, artificial flavorings and colorings are used in addition to the natural ingredients. Philippines’ version for ice cream: Sorbetes is usually produced from unknown factories and sold from carts that roam the streets, exposing it to pollution. Thus, it is also called dirty ice cream; though it is not really dirty as the name implies. Kids love ice cream, and so do grown-ups, but to indulge in this frozen delight can mean a lot of fat and calories, depending on the choices. The calories in a cup of ice cream can vary anywhere from 180 to 600, depending on brand, fat content, sugar content, and flavor. Nonfat or fat-free ice creams contain virtually no fat: vegetable gums are added to make them creamy and mixtures are made in soft serve machines to whip in additional air and ice crystals. Most nonfat ice creams contain 90 to 100 calories per half cup but not all, leaving health-conscious consumers, who avoid calories and fat, fewer options, or none at all.
