Ben & Jerry's Chocolate Fudge Brownie ice cream

Ben & Jerry's is a world-renowned ice cream brand famous for its creative flavors and social activism. Founded in 1978 in Burlington, Vermont, USA, it began as a humble ice cream parlor in a renovated gas station. The brand is recognized for its commitment to high-quality ingredients, including Fairtrade certified items as seen on this packaging.

While the brand maintains its headquarters in the United States, it was acquired by the multinational conglomerate Unilever in 2000. Under Unilever's ownership, Ben & Jerry's operates as a mission-led subsidiary, retaining an independent board of directors to preserve its social and ethical values. Manufacturing takes place in several locations globally, including the United States, Israel, and the Netherlands to serve international markets like Europe.
