Nestlé spinning off ice cream division


 

Nestlé is preparing to separate its global ice cream business, marking a significant strategic change for one of the world’s largest dairy and food manufacturers.


The ice cream division has faced operations and market pressures in recent years. Spinning off the business would allow it to operate independently, potentially unlocking value while enabling Nestlé to concentrate resources on higher-margin segments within its food and beverage portfolio, market watchers wrote.
