The ice cream makers parent company Unilever had to step in to solve the issue with sales boycott The CEO of Unilever, which owns ice cream maker Ben & Jerry''s, advised its brands to keep away from matters where they lack expertise. On subjects where Unilever brands don''t have the expertise or credibility, we think it''s best that they stay out of the debate , Alan Jope said during a conference call with the press on Thursday. Jopes words referred to last years decision by Ben & Jerry''s to stop selling its ice cream in the Occupied Palestinian Territories of the West Bank and East Jerusalem, stating that selling its ice cream there is a move inconsistent with the companys values. Initially, Unilever did not protest the boycott, with Jope saying last August the company does not interfere in the actions of independent boards. However, now the company, which employs thousands in Israel and has millions invested there, is working on creating a new arrangement for Ben & Jerry''s sales in Israel, and recommended its board to not interfere in the matter.
