Blue Bell Creameries is a long-standing ice cream manufacturer based in Brenham, Texas. Its origins date to 1907, when local businessmen opened a creamery to turn excess cream from area farmers into butter, and within a few years it began making ice cream and delivering it by horse and wagon. While much has changed over more than a century, the company maintains a focus on quality and care in its ice cream production. Today, Blue Bell is considered among the top-selling ice cream brands in the United States, with distribution across parts of 23 states in the Southern, Western, and Midwestern regions. 

The company serves regional consumers and operates as a substantial employer in the Brenham area. It has continued product development, introducing Honey Vanilla in February 2026 and Black Raspberry Fudge for a limited time in May 2026, alongside the launch of Blue Bell PRO in January 2026. In June 2026 it announced a partnership with Ochsner Blood Bank to provide donors with a voucher for a pint of ice cream, reflecting a community-focused initiative.
