The overview

Born at North Market in 2002.

Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams began in Columbus's North Market in 2002, when Jeni Britton set out to make ice cream from scratch with grass-grazed milk and boldly original flavors like Salty Caramel and Brambleberry Crisp. It helped launch the country's craft ice-cream movement and grew into a beloved national brand.

Still headquartered in Columbus, where its scoop shops remain hometown favorites, Jeni's is the 2026 Centurion Award winner.
