History

Hjem-IS was founded in 1976 in Denmark. The concept was inspired by the American ice cream truck model, where ice cream is sold directly to customers in residential areas. The brand quickly gained popularity due to its convenience and the novelty of having ice cream delivered to one's doorstep.

Distribution Method

The hallmark of Hjem-IS is its fleet of blue and white refrigerated trucks, which are equipped with a distinctive bell that alerts customers to their presence. These trucks follow specific routes and schedules, making regular stops in neighborhoods to sell ice cream directly to consumers. This method of distribution allows Hjem-IS to maintain a close relationship with its customers and ensures the freshness of its products.

Environmental Initiatives
