Stoney
Creek Dairy a
brief History |
 |
|
In 1929, a young George Dawson began the original Stoney Creek Dairy from a
small garage at the back of his home on King Street, collecting
milk from surrounding farms, bottling it and providing his neighbours with
fresh milk from their own community. Right
from the beginning, the Dairy delivered only the highest quality products and the highest level of service to its customers. Over the next several years the dairy installed new equipment, developed
its own ice cream recipes and began manufacturing and serving its own delicious
flavours of ice cream.

Twelve
years after starting the dairy, the now legendary Dairy Bar opened and quickly
became a favourite meeting place. To
keep up with growing demand, a more modern facility was built, opening in 1964
still on the original site. In 1974 an older section of the
building was destroyed in a blaze, a scary moment for what had become one of
Stoney Creek’s favourite landmarks. The
Dairy was rebuilt to the original design and re-opened in the spring of 1975.
In 1979, the Dairy began to focus exclusively on ice cream.

In the late 1990’s, the facility underwent a massive overhaul, with an
investment of close to $13 Million, to make the Stoney Creek plant a state of
the art manufacturing facility.
Since december 2010, Stoney
Creek Dairy Ltd is owned by Produits Plaisirs Glacés inc. This company
continues production of Stoney Creek Dairy products with the same quest
for superior quality that caracterized Stoney Creek Dairy.
