Good Humor
Good Humor was founded in Youngstown, Ohio in the 1920’s and it became one of the most popular ice cream brands in America, especially known for its ice cream trucks. In 1961, it was bought out by Thomas J. Lipton of Unilever, meaning the American ice cream company is now a British one.
Holiday Inn
The Holiday Inn was founded as a single motel in 1952 in between Memphis and Nashville, Tennessee, by Kemmons Wilson. By 1953, Wilson partnered up with Wallace E. Johnson to expand. In the 1980’s, the company expanded to become a large chain and was bought by English company International Hotels Group. The company still owns Holiday Inn to this day.
