Eskimo is an Austrian-origin ice cream brand first introduced in 1927 for the ice-business of the Wiener Milchindustrie AG (MIAG). The brand became part of Unilever's Austrian portfolio and is widely known across Austria under the Eskimo name. (de.wikipedia.org)

Although Eskimo is an Austrian brand by origin and remains a leading name in the Austrian ice category, much of the contemporary production for products sold under the Eskimo name is manufactured in Germany and then imported/distributed in Austria; Unilever Austria handles marketing and distribution. Accordingly manufacturing is primarily in Germany while the brand identity and primary market association remain Austrian. (de-academic.com)

Ultimate ownership rests with Unilever (managed locally by Unilever Austria GmbH). Unilever consolidated its legal group under Unilever PLC (UK-registered) while continuing substantial European operations; Unilever retains global ownership/management of many regional ice-cream brands and handles Eskimo within its Foods & Refreshment/frozen portfolio for Austria.
