Graeter?s Manufacturing Company
Columbus, OH
Founded in 1870 by Louis C. Graeter, the factory continues to produce ice cream, chocolate, and baked goods using the original family recipes. Visitors can observe the French Pot method, where ice cream is churned in two‑gallon batches to maintain texture. The plant remains a family‑owned operation in Columbus, Ohio, preserving traditional techniques that have been in use for over a century.
