Ben & Jerry的新董事会任期限制将三位长期董事赶下台, Ben & Jerry’s new board term limits ousted three longtime directors, sparking conflict over the brand’s activist mission post-spinoff.

Ben & Jerry's实施了董事会成员任期九年的限制，导致包括董事长Anuradha Mittal在内的三位长期任职董事离职，此前其2024年从联合利华分拆为The Magnum冰淇淋公司后引发紧张局势。 Ben & Jerry’s has implemented a nine-year term limit for board members, resulting in the departure of three long-serving directors, including chair Anuradha Mittal, amid tensions following its 2024 spinoff from Unilever into The Magnum Ice Cream Company. 这些旨在改进治理的改革是在该品牌的社会使命和基金会的财政控制发生争议之后作出的,该品牌每年收到500万美元。 The changes, aimed at improving governance, come after disputes over the brand’s social mission and financial controls at its foundation, which receives $5 million annually. 共同创始人,特别是本·科恩(Ben Cohen)批评此举是为了破坏品牌积极分子的遗产,而Magnum(Magnum)则主张改革能强化监督。 Co-founders, particularly Ben Cohen, criticize the move as an effort to undermine the brand’s activist legacy, while Magnum asserts the reforms strengthen oversight. 基金会未来的筹资正在审查之中。 The foundation’s future funding is under review.
