About This Business

Honeysuckle Gelato is a gelato company that was founded in 2011 by three friends, Jackson Smith, Wes Jones, and Khatera Ballard, with the simple idea of bringing great gelato to the South. The company began as a food truck and has since expanded to multiple brick-and-mortar locations throughout the Southeast, including Ponce City Market in Atlanta, GA, Optimist Hall in Charlotte, NC, Trilith in Fayetteville, GA, and Fenton in Cary, NC. Honeysuckle Gelato is committed to creating delicious gelato and joyful experiences, with a mission to make bad days good and good days better. The company offers a variety of unique and decadent flavors inspired by the South, such as Butter Pecan Blondie, Lemon Raspberry Crumble, and Salted Caramel Brownie. In addition to its gelato, Honeysuckle Gelato is also dedicated to giving back to the community, with a partnership with Feeding America Network food banks to donate 5% of companywide profits. As of Spring 2024, the company has donated enough money to provide over 650,000 meals as part of its commitment to the fight against food insecurity in the communities it serves. With a strong focus on community and customer satisfaction, Honeysuckle Gelato has become a beloved brand in the Southeast, with a loyal following and a reputation for high-quality gelato and exceptional customer service.
