Bruce Reed grew up working at Jerry's Curb Service, his parents' diner in Bridgewater, and in July 1989 he opened an ice cream stand right beside it. He dropped the franchise he had started under, renamed the place Bruster's in 1990 and began franchising in 1993. A borough of a few hundred people now has its name on stores in more than twenty states.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
