In
1952, when Marvin Schwan first took his dairy business on the road,
times were different. Most of our customers lived in rural areas.
Marvin's delivery service was the only way to get a variety of
high-quality frozen food and dairy products.
Marvin and his parents were the owners of a small struggling dairy.
The government dairy prices created a competitive market. But Marvin
discovered an opportunity. North of Marshall, MN, he learned that
ice cream was selling at a higher price. One morning, he loaded 14
gallons of ice cream into his old panel truck and ventured north. By
sundown he'd sold the entire stock. Schwan's home delivery system
was under way. From those humble beginnings at a family farm arose
the diversified business now known as Schwan's Sales Enterprises,
Inc.
Today, life is more hectic. Time is short. And customers across the
nation are still coming home to Schwan's because they want the best
in nutritious, well-balanced meals for their families.
Times have changed. But our values remain as strong today as the day
Marvin started the business.
We remain proud of our roots. Our corporate office still occupies
the site of the original Schwan's Dairy. Home delivery, which began
with our signature ice cream almost 50 years ago, is now available
in all 48 states of the continental United States.
Our convenient and timesaving home-delivery service makes it easy to
serve your family delicious, wholesome foods for breakfast, lunch,
and dinner.
At the end of the day, you'll feel good knowing Schwan's is waiting.
