The History of Dairy Queen
Dairy Queen holds the title of being the world’s largest seller of soft frozen dessert products. Its fascinating journey started in 1938 in Moline, Illinois when a man named McCullough and his son, Alex McCullough, experimented with a soft frozen dairy product. They enlisted the help of Sherb Noble, who owned an ice cream store in Illinois, to test their creation. The response was overwhelming, with more than 1,600 dessert lovers lining up to try their treat.
Undeterred by initial setbacks, the McCulloughs were determined to find a way to produce soft ice cream on a larger scale. After being turned down by two dairy equipment companies, they stumbled upon an advertisement in the Chicago Tribune that led them to Harry M. Oltz. In 1939, the McCulloughs and Oltz reached an agreement, allowing them to open the first Dairy Queen store in Joliet, Illinois on June 22, 1940. By 1942, there were already eight Dairy Queen stores in operation in different cities.
Today, Dairy Queen has a global presence with thousands of stores in the United States, Mexico, Canada, Europe, Central America, and the Middle East. Despite the many changes in the world, Dairy Queen remains a go-to place for businessmen, families, and anyone looking for delicious food and soft-serve treats.
