NOTES TO EDITORS

About Rose Mattus

Rose and Reuben Mattus established Haagen-Dazs in New York 1960. Whilst Reuben created the products, it was Rose who ran and held the business together so her husband could be successful. A marketing pioneer of the time, she built an unprecedented fan base for the brand without spending any advertising dollars through sampling and building word-of-mouth in high end establishments and trendy neighbourhoods of Manhattan. Rose with their daughter Doris opened the first Haagen-Dazs Shop in Brooklyn 1976 and  then grew a Shops franchising network that expanded the business nationally. They were eventually recognised with an 'Outstanding Entrepreneur' award by the National Association of Women Business Owners. A real partner to her inventor husband, Rose made Haagen-Dazs into the famous brand we know and love today.
