We're so excited to announce our Small Business of the Year Honoree, Ben & Jerry's at The River! We’re lucky to have their team as such an integral part of our Rancho Mirage community.

For over 20 years, Ben & Jerry’s at The River has been a staple in the community, serving up more than just delicious ice cream – it’s about creating a welcoming, fun, and friendly experience for every customer. We've perfected our operations over the years, establishing one of the cleanest and most vibrant scoop shops in the system, which is a key factor in our continued growth. Year after year, our sales increase, a true testament to the passion, dedication, and hard work put forth by our loyal and talented staff.

Our team is the heart of our success. Their enthusiasm, skill, and commitment to excellence are reflected in every interaction with our guests. We pride ourselves on maintaining a friendly atmosphere where customers feel like family. The energy at our scoop shop is infectious, with each visit offering a memorable experience for our visitors.

At Ben & Jerry’s, we believe in the power of community and take pride in our active involvement. We are dedicated to giving back and have built meaningful relationships with local charities, such as Guide Dogs of the Desert. Additionally, we offer programs for local school districts to help foster creativity and leadership within our youth. Our goal is not just to serve ice cream, but to make a positive impact on the lives of others and help build a stronger, more connected community.

With every scoop, we continue to uphold our mission of providing joy, kindness, and quality, all while making a difference in the lives of those around us. It’s not just business; it’s a way of life that we take seriously.
