Schwan’s Home Delivery, a Marshall, Minnesota-headquartered food delivery company that has delivering frozen products to millions of customers in the United States for three generations, is getting a new name. Say hello to Yelloh!
“Schwan’s Home Delivery was started in 1952 as a new business model for selling my family dairy’s ice cream,” said Paul Schwan, executive chairman of Yelloh. “Since the beginning, our can-do attitude coupled with a desire to meet people where they’re at is what has made our company so special. As Yelloh, we will continue to operate as the same solutions-focused food delivery service that keeps our customers’ freezers stocked and their families happily fed.”
“Bold, courageous change is in our company’s DNA, and evolving from Schwan’s Home Delivery to Yelloh is another exciting step in our journey,” said Joe Kirby, president and chief executive officer of Yelloh. “In addition to evoking our iconic yellow delivery vehicles, Yelloh is a greeting commonly used in place of ‘hello’ between people who are familiar with one another, and it felt right as we continue to evolve our company to meet the needs of our customers. Embracing personal connections that form between our people and the communities we serve has set us apart for seven decades and is our biggest advantage in the highly competitive food delivery marketplace.”
The system-wide switch to Yelloh is expected to be fully implemented by the beginning of 2023. Current Schwan’s Home Delivery operations will proceed uninterrupted while the transition to Yelloh is applied to food packaging, delivery vehicles, uniforms, signage, print materials, digital and social media properties, and more. Current customers will continue to receive delivery from the brand’s local team members in the company’s iconic yellow vehicles.
Schwan’s Home Delivery provides customers with a wide range of frozen foods for every mealtime occasion, including pizza, premium meats and seafood, breakfast items, ice cream, desserts and more. The family-owned company has almost 4,000 dedicated employees and more than 300 local neighborhood centers nationwide.
