Goodbye Haagen Dazs, I guess there weren't enough of the masses who would buy ice cream at P120 a scoop...
Haagen-Dazs closing down in PH | ABS-CBN News
MANILA, Philippines – After more than a decade of selling high-end frozen desserts in the Philippines, Haagen- Dazs is closing its last two branches in the country.
On its website, Haagen-Dazs Philippines announced that it will cease operations at the Shangri-La Plaza Mall and Eastwood Mall on August 31.
Last June 30, Haagen-Dazs shut its branches at SM Mall of Asia and Robinsons Mall.
“Haagen-Dazs is closing down in the Philippines,” the luxury ice cream brand said.
General Mills Philippines, which distributes Haagen-Dazs in the country, was earlier planning to put up five to 10 more branches in Metro Manila.
But the brand was unable to attract enough customers, with General Mills Philippines citing an “increasingly challenging” business environment, according to a report from BusinessWorld newspaper.
The remaining products will be sold in retail stores until supplies last, it added.
Last year, Haagen-Dazs tapped model Georgina Wilson and Azkals player Phil Younghusband as its first brand ambassadors in the Philippines.
Haagen-Dazs first made its way to the Philippines in 1998. Placed in elegant-looking tubs and sold at a premium, the company’s products are marketed as an occasional indulgenceLast edited by Monseratto; July 12th, 2012 at 10:13 PM.

Ben n Jerry's sa SnR.
It doesn't make sense to have such an expensive boutique product when there are relatively inexpensive freshly made high quality gelatos on the market and in some restaurants. Certainly hard to make a business case for it against high end fro-yos that are cheaper to make, too.

July 13th, 2012 01:47 AM #10Sa Amerika LNG ako nagtitikim nyan. lahat ng flavors nyan mostly sa supermarkets.. yun pinaka maliit na cup $3 5$ depende sa flavor, tas yun parang bigger than pint size eh $10. Eto yun kinakain nila na lalagyanan ng ice cream sa Friends TV show. sobrang natatakam kse ako noon time na nahilig ako sa Friends eh
sa Europe Asa pa ako nakabili nyan putsa mas mahal pa sa'tin kahit yun sa mini grocery LNG sa Paris.
Well, regarding taste it's premium ice cream tlaga but the special flavors of selecta and nestle ngaun halos pareho na din.
Pero iba talaga ang dairy ng Europe, lalo na yan mga Germanic states like Switzerland and Germany na din. Grabe khit yun free hotel breakfast ko, talaga nman Naka 5 cup ata ako ng Hot chocolate. and the butter oh wow! Sabi ko sa inyo pag pinahid nyo ang butter nila sa bread, heaven.
I also use the same brand for my android auto medyo mahal compared sa non branded typc to c.
