JERUSALEM, June 30 — Unilever announced Wednesday it has sold its Ben & Jerry’s interests in Israel to a locally based licensee, clearing the way for renewed ice cream sales in West Bank settlements.
Parent company Unilever said Wednesday it had “sold its Ben & Jerry’s business interests in Israel to Avi Zinger... the current Israel-based licensee”. “After long months of negotiations, we have managed to secure the production and sale of our beloved ice cream... in Israel and Judea and Samaria,” Zinger said Wednesday, using the Biblical terms for the West Bank.
Israel’s Foreign Minister Yair Lapid welcomed Wednesday’s decision, saying it “ensures that the Ben & Jerry’s factory and its diverse workforce, will be protected”, in a joint statement with Economy Minister Orna Barbivai.
