The Company

Gu, the number one chilled dessert brand and pioneer in indulgence has grown 27% in the last two years, we are accelerating that growth even further.

Now under new ownership, we are embarking on the next era of the Gu Journey: we have a big growth agenda set for the next few years. Central to that will be investing in Gu and growing our range of treats to attract new customer to our category and drive category growth. Beyond the UK, we’re putting a lot into fulfilling our international growth agenda. Right now, we’re seeing more French customers buying our desserts more than ever before, which is a great opportunity for Gu. We’re also expanding Gu’s presence in Germany and the Netherlands.

We are proud of our history and remain focussed on bringing ‘firsts’ to the market – Gü was the first to launch a chocolate soufflé to the UK market; the first to sell desserts made with ganache; and the first to offer a melting middle dessert.
