Good Day (ice cream)

Good Day is a brand of ice cream manufactured by Raland Dairy.

History
Good Day was introduced by Raland Dairy in 1970 as a brand for its ice cream products.

Several years prior to when Raland Dairy introduced Good Day, in 1930 the Harvie family of became a  franchisee as Harvie's Good Humor. When the other Good Humor franchisees agreed to cease their franchisee agreements in 1961, Harvie's held out and continued to use the Harvie's Good Humor name in the Austin area and the Harvie's name in the rest of Texas and elsewhere in the Southwest United States.

In 1980, Raland Dairy purchased Harvie's Enterprises for US$2 million, with intentions of using it to expand into the American ice cream and frozen dessert market. However, Raland Dairy were faced with legal issues with Good Humor owners, who opposed Raland Dairy's acquisition of Harvie's over the Good Humor name dispute in Texas. Because Raland Dairy already owned the Good Day brand in Raland, Jim Harvie Jr. suggested the replacement of the Harvie's Good Humor brand with the Good Day brand, since "Day" required only three new letters, the removal of five old ones and the movement of seven old ones on the company's Austin manufacturing plant's sign. Harvie's also sold its ice cream vending business and became just a distributor and manufacturer.
