About the Company
Discover the story behind our ice cream and what makes us unique!
The Company was founded in New Zealand in 1985 by President, Bill Lyons and the company produced the first super premium pint ice cream in New Zealand and Australia. New Zealand Delight was voted the best food product in New Zealand by "Supermarketing Magazine" and special honours were bestowed by the country's Prime Minister, Michael Moore. In 1986 New Zealand Delight became the first imported ice cream available to Americans.
The company began exporting special super premium ice cream in shipments from New Zealand to the United States and the Americans took a great liking to the exotic flavours with the brand receiving the Award of Excellence in 1986 at the National Ice Cream Retailers Association Convention in St.Louis.

Founder
In 1984 Bill Lyons created a major super premium ice cream brand called New Zealand Natural Delight, that was exported to Japan, Australia and the United States which became America's only imported ice cream in the 1980's and 1990's.
The brand surpassed Ben & Jerry's ice cream sales volume in Hawaii from 1986 through 1991 and in Japan the sales grew large enough to build a special ice cream factory in Kanazawa, Japan. This New Zealand super premium ice cream was voted the best food product in New Zealand by “Supermarketing Magazine” and it received many international awards, including being voted the best ice cream in the world, beating out Haagen Daz in Paris, France by a panel of eighteen supermarket editors and food experts, thus winning the Sial D'OR trophy.
