Italian immigrant Pietro ("Pedro") D'Onofrio (1859–1937) arrived in Argentina at 21 years old. In that country, he learnt how to make ice cream from a friend of his family, Raffaele Cimarelli. After a brief return to his born-country, D'Onofrio came back to Argentina. Cimarelli suggested him to move to Peru, to take advance of the Lima's favorable weather, considering it a good opportunity to set their business. Following the advice, D'Onofrio and his wife moved to Lima, where they started the business, at first with only a yellow ice cream cart. In 1908 D'Onofrio acquired a plant to manufacture artificial ice. D'Onofrio soon expanded his business to chocolate, manufactured with technology from Europe. Other products included cookies and candies. D'Onofrio died in 1937, being succeeded by his son Antonio, which took over the company and introduced new products to afford the increasing demand. In 1997, the company was acquired by the Peruvian subsidiary of Nestlé. Ice-cream brands
