We Are Makers

Vintage Hudsonville Ice Cream Truck

Since 1926

Hudsonville Ice Cream has been a full-time ice cream manufacturer for nearly a century. The company was founded by Dick Hoezee, whose hard work and passion for ice cream fueled decades of growth for the organization.

When the company was purchased by the Ellens family in 2003, our facilities were soon relocated from Hudsonville, MI, to the nearby town of Holland, MI. This move enabled Hudsonville Ice Cream to acquire unprecedented manufacturing capacity, mix-making and bulk handling equipment, new fillers, an additional hardening freezer, fully automated packaging and palletizing, best-in-class robotics, a new dry goods warehouse and one of the largest cold freezers in the industry.

Our commitment to delivering the best possible experiences and creations drives our continuous expansion and innovation. From new product lines to exciting flavors, we’re always pushing forward—with no plans of slowing down. Every batch of our ice cream is crafted with the highest-quality ingredients by the most dedicated experts, ensuring every bite is nothing short of exceptional.

Amazing People, Outstanding Products

Our success is built on the expertise of our skilled ice cream makers, many of whom have spent decades mastering their craft. Alongside our top-tier production team, our dedicated Food Safety and Quality team and innovative R&D food scientists work tirelessly to ensure every product exceeds expectations in flavor and quality.

But great ice cream is only part of the story. We believe in constant growth—honing our skills, strengthening relationships, and uplifting those around us. Personal development isn’t just a goal; it’s a commitment to enriching our families, friends, and communities every day.
