5 Questions with Tom Landis, Founder & CEO of Howdy Homemade Ice Cream

Howdy Homemade Ice Cream is on a “relentless pursuit to create more jobs for people with intellectual and developmental differences using the power of smiles and amazingly delicious ice cream.” The Texas-based company has conducted more than 100 sampling events employing people with special needs. 

The ice cream can be found in a variety of flavors, including Chocolate As All Get Out, which features the company’s vice president of Franchising on the label. Other company employees, many of whom also participate in special events including in-store sampling, are featured on other flavors. Pints are available at stores including H-E-B and United, and through catering and delivery. The company was recently featured in a People Magazine article and is preparing for a national footprint.
