Who we are

The International Ice Cream Consortium (IICC) is an association of independent Ice Cream manufacturers including 14 leading ice cream market companies from Europe, Middle East, Americas and Asia Pacific. Combined as a group, we are among the top 3 Ice Cream Producers globally, with an output of over 1.5 billion liters per year.

Our mission

Our mission is to create a competitive edge for independent ice cream companies by strengthening individual knowledge, developing capabilities and by providing a global perspective through a structured, collective effort.
We openly share industry related information thereby creating a continuous overview of what’s happening in ice cream all around the world. In short, we are an association that can promote the exchange of ideas and vital market information that individual members could not accomplish on their own.
Through our key activities we have created a worldwide network for independent ice cream manufacturers.
