The Unilever veteran is challenging the business to double its social impact.
Ice cream-maker Ben & Jerry's, Burlington, Vt., said it has a new CEO. Matthew McCarthy, a 21-year veteran at Ben & Jerry's parent company, Unilever, assumed the position July 1, 2018.
Ben & Jerry’s said McCarthy has wasted no time challenging the business to "double its social impact," attesting it will also lead to continued performance in the marketplace and meeting Ben & Jerry's triple-bottom-line focus on producing “the world's best ice cream,” earning a fair profit and giving back to the community.
