Best served cold : the rise, fall and rise again of Malcolm Walker CBE

Best served cold : the rise, fall and rise again of Malcolm Walker CBE

Malcolm Walker was born in the West Riding of Yorkshire in 1946. With fellow Woolworth's trainee manager Peter Hinchcliffe, Walker opened a small frozen food shop called Iceland in the Shropshire town of Oswestry in 1970. Iceland became a public company 14 years later, through one of Britain's most successful stock exchange flotations of all time, and by 1999 it had grown into a 2 billion turnover business with 760 stores. This is the dramatic story of the ups and downs of a born entrepreneur.
