Profile
Manufactures, sells, and distributes branded frozen fish, vegetables, poultry, ready meals, pizza, and potatoes. A single Frozen segment unites Birds Eye, iglo, Findus, Ledo, and Frikom across 22 European markets.
Built through acquisitions, the Frozen segment manufactures, sells, and distributes branded frozen products under established local brands. Birds Eye, iglo, Findus, Ledo, and Frikom anchor a portfolio formed through several acquisitions.
Across 22 European markets, those brands provide frozen products while retaining local identities. The group operates one frozen-food platform across Europe. The range includes fish, vegetables, poultry, ready meals, pizza, potatoes, and ice cream.
Headquartered in the United Kingdom, the acquisition-built group combines organic development with strategic acquisitions. Under CEO Dominic Brisby, Frozen remains the sole reportable and operating segment.
