Philadelphia is one of the world's most iconic cream cheese brands, originally created in New York in 1872 by William Lawrence. Despite its name, the brand was founded in Chester, New York, but named after Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, which was known at the time for high-quality dairy production.

The brand's ownership history is complex due to various corporate splits. Currently, the brand is owned by Mondelēz International in international markets (such as Europe and Australia) and by Kraft Heinz in North America (United States and Canada).

Manufacturing varies significantly based on the local market. For European consumers, it is often produced in Germany, while North American products are manufactured in regional plants across the US and Canada. This specific packaging is representative of the international branding shared across markets like Australia and Europe.
