Iglo

Iglo is a frozen food brand based in the United Kingdom, with products sold across the European continent.

[1] Nomad purchased the operations of Findus in all markets except the United Kingdom in November 2015,[2] and merged the businesses of Iglo and Findus in 2016 to form Nomad Foods Europe.

In 2010 BirdsEye Iglo Group purchased the Italian frozen food business Compagnia Surgelati Italiana SPA from Unilever for €0.8bn, and reunited the Findus brand in Sweden into the group that had previously been managed as one business under Unilever until 2006.

Blackstone Group and BC Partners made an unsuccessful bid of €2.5bn to buy Iglo from Permira in 2012.

[3] In April 2015 Permira agreed on a majority sale to United States-based investment vehicle Nomad Foods, valuing the group at €2.6bn (£1.9bn).
