Ballard Brands formed in December 2001 by brothers Paul, Scott and Steve Ballard. It is a privately held, multi-branded restaurant, food and coffee company, based out of New Orleans, Louisiana. We own, operate and franchise restaurants in our portfolio across the United States and in multiple countries world-wide. These brands collectively total nearly 200 locations in both traditional and non-traditional models, and continue to grow.
In 1921, 320 dairy farmers met in St. Paul, Minnesota, to form the Minnesota Cooperative Creameries Association. Their idea was simple—join together to effectively market and distribute members dairy production across the country. From there, we quickly set our sights on growth. Just eight years after establishing our butter marketing organization, we expanded into the ag services and feed businesses. Our international journey kicked off 52 years later, as we began relaying the lessons we had learned to support local agriculture in developing nations around the world. Those efforts have also helped us expand our commercial business beyond the borders of the United States. Today, our four businesses give us a farm-to-fork view of agriculture. Pair this with our farmer ownership and we are uniquely qualified to fulfill our purpose of feeding human progress around the world, while always delivering on our responsibility to member-owners through our core values. We are united in a common cause, committed to excellence and inspired by our place in the world—but there are no shortcuts. We have never lost sight of the value of a hard days work.

It is my great pleasure to share that Chartwells has re-positioned its brand for a new generation and beyond. This new identity was built upon understanding our new audience, Generation Z, which has replaced Millennials on college campuses. With its extreme affinity for technology, Generation Z is described by thought leaders as `over-connected, yet under-related`. Research suggests that brands promoting high-intensity relationships will be the key to preparing Gen Z students for the future. Our dining programs bring students together and serve as centers of academic life on the campuses we serve. Our investment creates social spaces. Our cuisine nourishes and inspires. If college is about sharing big ideas and discovering new people, then Chartwells is the center of a vibrant academic life. We`re chefs, interaction facilitators and food enthusiasts with a knack for drawing people together. Through our cuisine, community, talent, global resources and flexibility, we have the power to nourish and inspire. Our new mission is to be the place where hungry minds gather.
