Tillamook Ice Cream is now available at restaurants and scoop shops across the United States, thanks to an exclusive partnership with Dot Foods to list the brand with more than 5,200 distributors in all 50 states.
Packaged in three-gallon plastic tubs for foodservice customers are eight flavors made with rBST-free milk and no preservatives or other artificial ingredients: Butter Pecan, Chocolate, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, Cookies & Cream, Mint Chocolate Chip, Oregon Strawberry, Rocky Road and Vanilla Bean. Another 20 flavors available for special order.
”We are thrilled with this new opportunity to supply foodservice operators and their customers throughout the country,” said Preston Simon, director of foodservice for the Tillamook County Creamery Association (TCCA). “Our premium ice cream has tremendous loyalty now in retail, and this new distribution is poised to grow that fan base even more.”
TCCA has been making ice cream with more cream than industry standards require since 1947. As a long-time redistribution partner for Tillamook Cheese, the expanded ice cream partnership with Dot Foods will help build on TCCA’s rapidly growing presence as a national dairy brand. In 2021, Tillamook Ice Cream became the USA’s fastest-growing family-size ice cream brand in dollar sales.
“Based on the success that Tillamook Cheese has had within the foodservice sector, organically growing to be the most menu mentioned cheese in the US, we anticipate excellent enthusiasm and demand for our ice cream as well,” said Simon.
Founded in 1909 as a cooperative, Tillamook County Creamery Association is owned by almost 80 farming families, primarily based in Tillamook County, Oregon. TCCA operates production facilities in Tillamook and Boardman, Oregon, and employs more than 900 people throughout the state.
