Ben & Jerry’s, as we know and love it, will never be the same following the news that Jerry Greenfield, who co-founded the iconic ice-cream brand alongside business partner Ben Cohen nearly 50 years ago, has resigned. “We disagree with his perspective and have sought to engage both co-founders in a constructive conversation on how to strengthen Ben & Jerry’s powerful values-based position in the world. Ben & Jerry’s is a proud and thriving part of The Magnum Ice Cream Company and we look forward to further building on its success”. “I’m glad that we’re both standing up for the values of Ben and Jerry’s,” Cohen said. Cohen said that “the spirit of Jerry will always be at Ben & Jerry’s”.
