The world leading pure play ice cream company

I was 16 when I signed up for an apprenticeship in 2001 at our Leeming Bar factory working in Logistics and Technical providing administrative support. This led to a succession of roles such as Technical Co-ordinator, Packaging Technologist, Process Manager and Factory Manager and in 2023 I was promoted to UK Head of Operations. Froneri invests in young people and provides them with the relevant skills and training they need to achieve their goals. I feel part of a fantastic team where accountability and teamwork are demonstrated throughout our business and really value the skills that I have obtained and been able to share with others.

Continuous Improvement Specialist, South Africa

Rock Mwanza

I began my career as an Effluent Plant Operator, then moved into the Safety Department, and now I am a Continuous Improvement Specialist. Currently, as a team, we are working on reducing our utilities expenditure to have better control of how we manage our electricity. Should we get this right we will realize millions in savings annually on our electricity bill which also contributes to the business objective of reducing our Greenhouse Gas Emissions and achieving our ESG goals.

Production Worker, Turenki

Yuliia Pravoslavna

I come from the city of Kharkov, which is located in Ukraine. I started my own business in 1999, opening my first retail outlet selling household chemicals. In recent years, I was head of the sales at an event agency and an online plumbing store. Last year I left Ukraine and started working at the Penguini factory. I like that working in production is focused on product quality. It's a great job in an international team. You can feel the professionalism and experience of management. I'm proud to be part of the Froneri team.

Head of Supply Chain, Finland

Harri Pesonen

I have worked in ice cream for twenty years, mainly in different roles in the supply chain. It has been great to see up close how the Turenki factory has developed as part of an international company, and year after year we can offer Finns ice cream domestically produced. The strengths of an international company include a wide contact network, which enables us to compare operating methods between different markets and thus develop our own operations. One thing always remains the best – the first taste of new products!

Line Manager, New Zealand

Rangi Monga

At Froneri, we really encourage our people to step out of their comfort zone to explore their own abilities and accomplish their skills so they know what they can do to improve our performance and the quality of our products. Ideas come from everywhere, not just one person. Froneri has given me many opportunities to explore and inspire people and support teams. I really believe that teamwork is key to the success of our business and with the right attitude and a “can do” spirit we can achieve so much.

Supply Chain Manager, Serbia

Dragana Dimovic

I was a part of Froneri since the beginning, so I have witnessed changes and the development of the company first hand. We have grown our factory and operations multiple times in just a few years thanks to an entrepreneurial spirit and determination, which in my view, represent the best of our values. Ice cream is a category which requires fast actions and decisions, and we have the freedom to do just that. Froneri is willing to take a chance on people and give them room to grow and develop, as evident from my own career path.
