Olá

Olá is a Portuguese ice cream brand created in 1959 through a joint venture between Unilever and Jerónimo Martins. It is part of the global Heartbrand umbrella, which it joined in 1998. The brand operates primarily in Portugal and is also sold in Angola, Cape Verde, and Macau. The brand's origins trace to the acquisition of the Esquimó ice cream parlour, a small factory on Rua Arco do Cego in Santa Iría de Azóia (Lisbon). In 1970, Olá acquired the Rajá ice cream factory. In January 2007, the companies Fima, Lever, and IgloOlá merged into a single entity, Unilever Jerónimo Martins. On 19 March 2024, Unilever separated its ice cream business—including Magnum, Ben & Jerry's, and Heartbrand brands such as Olá—from its other operations. Olá's product portfolio includes both original Olá creations and internationally known Heartbrand lines. Among the brands it markets are Solero, Magnum, Cornetto, Haribo Push Up, Remix Cookie, Calippo, Volcanix, Perna de Pau, and Ben & Jerry's. The brand is positioned as a mainstream, widely available ice cream label in its markets, leveraging Unilever's global supply chain and brand portfolio.
