Jack and Jill Ice Cream Truck in Kentlands, Maryland
Jack and Jill Ice Cream Company was founded by Max Schwarz in 1929 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Schwarz sold ice cream he carried through the streets of Philadelphia. In 1936, the company purchased its first ice cream truck for selling ice cream. In addition to trucks, the company also sells ice cream to restaurants and catering services, in stores, and in vending machines throughout Philadelphia, Baltimore, Maryland, Washington, D.C., Richmond, Norfolk, Virginia, and recently acquired Roanoke, Virginia.
