Mercury rises in race for Fonterra's Tip Top ice cream
Tip Top has a strong history and brand in its own right, and the private equiteers reckon it could flourish again with some special attention and capital support.

capital support sums it up exactly

Tip Top sold for $380m
What a load of the proverbial this signoff is “Tip Top has always listened to consumers and cared about their changing tastes,.....”
Hope new owners put Cookies and Cream back in 2l packs .....mind you Moore’s isn’t too bad.

"340 serves of every minute of every day". That's about 178m serves a year.
At a required return of say 7.5% p.a., you need to earn $28.5m p.a. to cover the cost of your investment ($380m), or only about 16 cents profit per serve. On those modest metrics, Tip Top is a steal IMHO. (All that ignores any growth Tiptop might make)
Fonterra's excessive debt, has lead them to sell a value add business (with growth potential), for a song. Instead, the press release crows that "signedan agreement with the new owners to supply milk … [so] …Fonterra farmers willcontinue to be part of the Tip Top story …” Jesus wept.

poorly run business with to much debt always end up selling good assets at fire sale prices

“We will also retain full global ownership of the Kāpiti brand and will be licencing its use for ice cream to Froneri. This means our popular Kāpiti cheese isn’t going anywhere.”

lol you obviously dont understand the pitfalls of licencing a brand. without knowing the contract they could include losing control of your product from production to packaging etc etc etc , the licence holder may never produce much of the product preferring to promote there brands instead. these are just a few.
so technically they have sold the brand
