NATURE
On the outskirts of Arras in the north of France is a factory producing most of the world’ s Häagen-Dazs ice cream. Lush fields and cows lined our journey to the plant, before we were greeted by the General Mills team.
Established in 1992, the primary global manufacturing facility for Häagen-Dazs supplies more than 90 countries across Europe, Asia, Australia and South America and produces nearly 80 million litres of ice cream each year.
“ When we first started, we were producing classic pints and large tubs for food service,” explains Plant Director Nicolas Cayeux.“ In 1993 we started making stick bars and expanded into mini-cups in 1994.
