Iglo became Permira’s in 2006, when it bought the company that is mostly known for its fish sticks from British-Dutch Unilever for 1.8 billion euro. Iglo on the other hand bought its Italian competitor Findus from Unilever in 2010. The British group has a yearly turnover of 1.5 billion euro nowadays and its EBITDA last year reached 306 million euro.
