Leading Nordic super premium ice cream manufacturer 3 Friends partners with Sentica to accelerate growth in Northern Europe
3 Friends has grown in less than ten years to offer its tubs and sticks with natural ingredients to over 5,000 stores in Sweden and Finland, with over €10 million in revenue. The partnership with Sentica is another key strategic step in the company’s growth plan, following the significant investments in recent years to strengthen the organisation, expand production capacity and introducing new product categories.
With the additional support, 3 Friends aims to speed up its expansion into new markets with the purpose of creating a new Nordic consumer brand success story. “With the knowledge and resources of the three founders we have managed to reach the current stage, but we recognised the need for added resources in order to take the next step. During discussions with Sentica we felt that our ideas about the future of the company are very much in line”, comments the Chief Executive Officer Heikki Huotari about the transaction.
