Iceland Foods is undergoing a review of its management structure but said the suggestion that hundreds of roles are at risk was “categorically untrue”.

The frozen food giant employs more than 25,000 staff across the º£½ÇÊÓÆµ - including around 800 at its headquarters on Deeside.

The firm confirmed it was looking at the way management is set up but had not yet made any decisions.

It had been reported that this could lead to hundreds of roles going, which they said was not correct.

A spokesman for Iceland Foods said: “Iceland Foods has no plans for major reductions in its º£½ÇÊÓÆµ workforce of more than 25,000 people, and absolutely no plans to reduce the number of staff employed in its stores.

“Like every other retailer, we regularly review our management structure to ensure that we are running our business as efficiently and economically as possible.

“Such a review has recently begun but it is an ongoing process and no decisions have yet been taken as a result of it.”

Last week, both Sainsbury’s and Morrisons announced that management roles would be axed.
