Dairy Queen
Founded in 1940, the ice cream chain is a secondary business of Berkshire Hathaway, Warren Buffett’s company. Additionally, in 1987, Dairy Queen bought Orange Julius as well as being the newly integrated company that Buffett purchased. Dairy Queen has a great international presence too, although they have been dealing with many hardships. It has minor profit margins with higher functioning costs because of the many products the chain supplies the public. Affiliates have also experienced bankruptcy, with Vasari LLC as an example. The company declared bankruptcy and closed down 70 Dairy Queens during 2017.
