H.Morton Perry was the company's founder and he used his mother ice cream recipe to make his first batch of ice cream cups. That first batch was sold to the Akron High school and that is how the Perry's dairy became a milk and ice cream company. In the early 1980's the company phased out of milk operations to focus on ice cream, sherbet, frozen yogurts and sorbets. Today, the company still makes ice cream using a "craftsmanship" approach to making small batchs of the some of the most creamy ice cream on the market. Perry's ice cream is in the top 100 of all US ice cream companies in terms of revenues nearing $80 million. The company is lead by Robert Denning, president & C.E.O, and the founders great grandson Brian Perry, EVP/Vice Chairman & Gayle Perry Denning is the company's Director of Sustainability.
