Brown's Velvet was the oldest and largest dairy company in New Orleans and served the Gulf States market area. Ice cream flavors once included Creolecream cheese.[2][3] Marigold Foods purchased the Brown's Velvet Ice Cream division in 1993 to expand its line of Kemps frozen desserts.[4] The milk business was retained.[1]
In order to stay in New Orleans, Brown's had made a deal with the city for a one-block stretch of Thalia Street. The dairy was initially bought out by Southern Foods Group which also acquired Barbe's and Walker-Roemer, two other area dairy companies.[5]
