Nomad Foods sees sharp rise in sales after increasing prices

Firm says profitability suffered due to post-pandemic inflation and Ukraine war

Nomad Foods, the owner of Birds Eye, Findus and Goodfella’s pizzas, has seen a sharp rise in sales after it increased prices by 18%, amid political scrutiny over food pricing.

The business, which supplies the UK’s major supermarkets, said sales had risen by 8.6% in the three months to the end of June. The number of items sold dropped by 9.4% but profits rose 6.8% to €210m.
