The terms of the divestment have not been disclosed and the transaction is subject to regulatory approval.
 
Eismann is a home delivery business with annual sales of about CHF750m (US$609.4m) and operations in Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, The Netherlands, Spain and Switzerland.


Nestlé acquired Eismann in 2001 as part of Schöller, a producer and marketer of ice cream in Germany as well as in Central and Northern Europe.


Nestlé said home delivery to private households does not constitute a strategic priority for the company.
