It was nearly exactly three years ago – on April 21, 2015 – when a massive new player entered the frozen seafood industry. It was a group whose name we hadn’t heard before, but one everyone in this industry would get to know: Nomad Foods.

Formed by two consumer goods tycoons a year earlier, Martin Franklin and Noam Gottesman, its goal was clear from the beginning: to build a “global consumer brands business.”

Trawling through Nomad’s 2017 investor presentation this week, and seeing some of the frankly very impressive figures, I have the feeling it's on the right track.
