This is an ideal partnership for both parties as Nestlé continues to transform its portfolio and SimplyCook accelerates its growth,” said Nestlé UK & Ireland CEO, Stefano Agostini.

Commenting on the deal, SimplyCook founder and CEO, Oli Ashness, added: “The more we got talking to Nestlé the more we realised that our ambitions and vision for the business aligned with what Nestlé sees as the right path for the SimplyCook business. Nestlé’s experience, operational expertise, and international know-how gives us the opportunity to expand further in the UK and beyond, making cooking more accessible for millions more consumers in far less time than we previously imagined.”
