Major grocery chain gives 1000s of customers free ice cream
Hot summer days are the perfect time to relax with a nice serving of ice cream. For some communities, the sound of music playing from an ice cream truck prompts children, teens, and parents to race to the curb of their street to stop the truck to buy a frozen treat before it passes by. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter For those areas lacking a local ice cream truck, a trip to Baskin-Robbins, Cold Stone Creamery, or Dairy Queen might be the solution to that frozen treat craving.

And consumers have several choices to consider when buying that refreshing treat. Name-brand ice cream choices that you can find at most grocery stores include Dreyer's (known as Eddy's in some areas), Breyers, Ben & Jerry's, Blue Bunny, Tillamook, and Häagen-Dazs. The competition for ice cream sales is so fierce that many national and regional grocery chains and big-box retailers have their own private label brands to entice consumers. For Costco members, Kirkland Signature ice cream, with a limited number of flavors, is available. Target in 2021 launched its private label ice cream brand Favorite Day, and Walmart launched its latest private label ice cream in April 2024 to go with its Great Value brand, known as bettergoods. The private label offers dairy and plant-based options for customers. To compete with the big boxes, national and regional grocery chains offer private labels to consumers as well. Publix stores offer their Premium brand of ice cream, as well as their organic GreenWise brand. Albertsons, Vons, and Safeway stores have for years sold their Signature Select private label, and Whole Foods offers its 365 private label brand.

Tamil Nadu govt mulls new industrial estate; Stalin highlights MSME growth
CHENNAI: The state government is actively considering a proposal from the Ambattur Industrial Estate Manufacturers Association (AIEMA) seeking the allocation of 1,000 acres of land to establish a new industrial estate within a 50 km radius of Chennai. Delivering the inaugural address at the 16th edition of ACMEE 2025, Chief Minister M K Stalin said the request submitted by AIEMA president RSS Satish Babu 'will certainly be considered.' Babu, in his remarks, highlighted the space constraints manufacturers face in Ambattur and stressed that a new estate on the city's outskirts would support the chief minister's goal of making TN a $1 trillion economy. Stalin noted that Tamil Nadu ranks third in the country for the number of registered Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), with over 3.5 million units generating 24.7 million jobs. He added that the state contributes 11.9% to India's manufacturing Gross Value Added (GVA) and leads in the production of motor vehicles, garments, and leather goods, while ranking second in textiles, machinery, and electronics. Criticising the previous AIADMK government, Stalin said his government had allocated Rs 6,626 crore to the MSME sector in just three years, compared to Rs 3,617.6 crore in AIADMK's rule. The current year's allocation stands at Rs 1,918.2 crore. The biennial ACMEE exhibition, organised by AIEMA, has grown from 435 to 468 exhibitors and features 120 international brands. Over 35,000 visitors are expected, with projected deals worth Rs 750 crore.

ICRA forecasts small dip in GDP growth at 6.2 per cent in 2025-26
Regarding inflation, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) is expected to be above 3.5 per cent, while the Wholesale Price Index (WPI) will be over 1.8 per cent for the current fiscal, the report added. Real Gross Value Added (GVA) growth is also expected to ease to 6 per cent from 6.4 per cent. Kolkata, Jun 18 (PTI) Leading rating agency ICRA, in its latest outlook, said India's real GDP growth for 2025-26 will be 6.2 per cent, down from 6.5 per cent in the preceding financial year. ICRA has forecast the fiscal deficit to be 4.4 per cent of GDP for 2025-26, with the current account deficit projected at 1.2 per cent to 1.3 per cent during the same period. According to ICRA, rural demand is likely to remain upbeat, aided by Rabi cash flows and above-normal reservoir levels. It also said that the combination of the sizeable income tax relief in the Union budget for 2025-26, rate cuts leading to lower EMIs and moderation in food inflation is expected to boost household disposable incomes. The report added that the tepidness in India's merchandise exports is expected to continue in the near term. Services exports are likely to outpace merchandise export growth, according to the ICRA outlook. The Centre's capital expenditure is budgeted to rise by 10.1 per cent in 2025-26, which will boost investment activities, it added. However, private capital expenditure may gain some traction on the face of a muted outlook for exports and uncertainty around trade policies, the report said.

India's GDP growth to exceed 6.5% in FY26, says Icra; rural demand and tax relief seen driving momentum
India's real GDP growth is expected to exceed 6.5% in FY2025–26, while real Gross Value Added (GVA) growth is likely to surpass 6.3%, according to a new outlook released by rating agency Icra on Tuesday. In its report, the agency cited rural demand, income tax relief, and lower EMIs as key factors that would support economic expansion over the fiscal. On the inflation front, Icra projected the Consumer Price Index (CPI) to remain above 4.2%, while the Wholesale Price Index (WPI) is estimated at over 2.7% in the current financial year, PTI reported. The agency also forecast India's fiscal deficit at 4.4% of GDP, while the current account deficit (CAD) is projected at –1% of GDP for FY26. Icra noted that rural demand is likely to remain upbeat, supported by Rabi cash flows and above-normal reservoir levels. Additionally, income tax cuts announced in the Union Budget 2025–26, combined with the expectation of interest rate cuts and moderating food inflation, are likely to increase household disposable income. While services exports are expected to outpace merchandise exports, Icra maintained a cautious outlook on India's goods trade, stating that merchandise exports may remain tepid in the near term. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Esse dispositivo discreto está virando febre entre idosos com dor nos nervos.
