Dairy Queen operates a global quick-service restaurant network that offers ice cream desserts and quick-serve items, including its Blizzard signature. From its Joliet, Illinois origin about 80 years ago, the chain has grown to more than 7,000 locations across the U.S., Canada and 22 other countries. It is based in Bloomington, Minnesota, with headquarters in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and it maintains a corporate structure that supports independent franchisees through offices in Canada and Singapore; the brand is privately owned by Berkshire Hathaway.

Since 1984, the DQ system has raised more than $154 million for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals in the U.S. and Canada through its charitable initiatives, with the DQ Cares program enabling paid time off for employees to volunteer. In the food and beverage services industry, the company serves a broad customer base seeking quick, convenient treats and meals across its international footprint. A notable development in June 2026 was the introduction of two lemonade beverages, DQ Sparklers and DQ Coolers, accompanied by a limited-time offer accessible via the DQ Mobile App.
