Gifford's Ice Cream is a family-business that began in the 1800s and is based out of Skowhegan, Maine. Five-generations later, and Gifford's Ice Cream can be found in grocery stores, independent ice cream shops, colleges, universities and restaurants all the way from Maine to the Mid Atlantic, to the Mid-West and as far West as Nevada.
I had the chance to sit and chat a bit with Lindsay Gifford-Skilling, the General Manager, and John Chester Gifford Jr, VP of Sales, and you can definitely feel the familial passion for their company.
