Brigham's Ice Cream

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Brigham's Ice Cream is an ice cream manufacturer and restaurant chain that operates throughout New England. It is based in Arlington, Massachusetts. ^[1] The company maintains a strong regional identity going out of its way to use regional terms such as "wicked" (extremely) and "frappe" (milkshake with ice cream), and make reference to events with special significance to New Englanders, such as the Big Dig and the 2004 World Series. ^[2]

[edit] History

Brigham's was founded in 1924 by Edward L. Brigham in Newton Highlands, Massachusetts. ^[3] In 1929, it merged with Symmes' Durand Company, and began to shift is focus from Newton to Boston. In the 1960's, they merged with Star Markets. In 1993, Brigham's bought Élan Frozen Yogurt, expanding its menu. Today, there are 27 locations throughout Massachusetts. Although November and December are traditionally the worst months for ice cream retail, these are the months Brigham's has its highest sales.
