The Frostkrone Food Group has secured a new refinancing arrangement, marking an important step in the company’s ongoing development. Backed by Deutsche Bank as its finance partner, the Rietberg, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany-headquartered company is well positioned to maintain its strategic momentum and pursue further expansion.
The existing investor group, led by Emeram Capital Partners since March of 2017, will continue to support Frostkrone as a committed long-term partner following the refinancing. As one of the leading investment managers for medium-sized companies in German-speaking countries, the München-based equity investment company brings extensive experience to the table.
“This represents a clear signal of confidence and stability. At the same time, the new financing partnership enables us to consistently drive forward our strategic investments in technology, innovation and quality,” said Frostkrone Food Group CEO Frédéric Dervieux, “The focus will be on investment in technology aimed at modernizing and automating processes, while delivering sustainable improvements in cost efficiency.”
As an innovator in the frozen finger food and snacks category, Frostkrone sees significant growth potential, particularly in the chilled and bake-off market segments. At the same time, the Group continues to expand its brand and licensing strategy. A notable example is the successful partnership established with the Old Amsterdam brand last year. The company’s diverse product portfolio is exported to over 45 countries, including markets across the EMEA region, the United States, Asia and Oceania.
Ambitious Growth Targets
By 2029, Frostkrone aims to increase its global revenue to over €500 million. For 2026, investments of around €20 million are planned to sustainably underpin this growth trajectory.
The Group operates eight state-of-the-art production facilities across Germany, France, the UK and the USA. With the refinancing from Deutsche Bank now secured, the company is sending a clear signal regarding its future viability, financial stability and strong growth potential, while further strengthening its position as a reliable partner to both retail and foodservice sectors.
