LONDON, Feb 19 (Reuters) – Swiss consumer goods company Nestle reported better than expected fourth-quarter sales growth on Thursday and said it was in advanced negotiations over the sale of its remaining ice cream business to Froneri as it continues to streamline its portfolio.
Nestle, the maker of Maggi stock cubes and Nescafe coffee, said it was expecting 2026 full-year organic sales to be in the range of 3-4%, and forecast an improvement in its underlying trading operating profit margin this year, from 16.1% in 2025.
