A Washington state ice cream company destroyed over 300,000 pounds of ice cream. Losses were well over $1 million. The CEO calls the recall ‘devastating, stressful yet incredibly meaningful.’
On Dec. 23, 2014, we issued a voluntary recall for all of our products, including pints, single-serve cups, wholesale tubs and mix.
Snoqualmie Ice Cream is craft ice cream made in Snohomish, Wash., My wife, Shahnaz, and I own the company. We bought it in 1997 and have grown the distribution from six Larry’s Markets and a handful of restaurants to more than 1,000 grocery and convenience stores, as well as dozens of wholesale foodservice and mix accounts.
