Streets is an Australian ice-cream brand owned by the multi-national British company Unilever. Some products are made in China and shipped to Australia and New Zealand. It is part of Unilever’s ice cream brand Heartbrand. The company is in a long-term contract with dairy company Dairy Farmers.
In 2017 Unilever applied to the Fair Work Commission to terminate the current enterprise agreement on wages and conditions and return factory workers to award conditions. The Australian Manufacturing Workers Union, which represents the workers, warned that they face a pay cut of up to 46 per cent. The union called on Australians to boycott Streets products in protest. A settlement was negotiated in November 2017.
