ABOUT BEN & JERRY's:

Ben & Jerry's Homemade Inc., started in 1978 in a renovated gas station in Burlington, Vermont, USA, founded by childhood friends and dedicated activists Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield.

Central to the mission of Ben & Jerry's is the belief that all three parts of its mission must thrive equally.
