An iconic Arkansas dairy company brand is fading into history starting this month.
Coleman Dairy, based in Little Rock, will now be Hiland Dairy.
Company officials have said there will be no layoffs or cutbacks.
The company, which has been around for almost 150 years, decided in 2012 to retire the Coleman brand which is only available in Little Rock to save costs.
Hiland Dairy, which is based in Missouri, took over the Little Rock dairy division in 2007.
