ear, RR Ice Cream was reportedly set to be put up for sale by majority owner US private-equity firm Oaktree Capital Management. Oaktree formed RR in 2006 when it acquired UK ice cream maker Richmond Foods and combined it with French asset Rocadin.
The company also makes own-label ice cream for retailers across Europe and has licensing deals with the likes of Nestle and Kraft Foods.
RR, however, has not commented publicly on the speculation.
