WWRD Holdings Limited was a company created by KPS Capital Partners in 2009 out of the remains of Irish firm Waterford Wedgwood plc, and in 2015 became part of Finnish home products maker Fiskars. The company owned Waterford Crystal, Wedgwood and Royal Doulton, among other brands, and the name WWRD was formed from the initials of these brands. On 5 January 2009, following years of financial problems at the group level, and after a share placement failed during the 2008 financial crisis, Waterford Wedgwood was placed into administration on a "going concern" basis, with 1800 employees remaining. On 27 February 2009, Waterford Wedgwood's receiver, Deloitte, announced that the New York-based private equity firm KPS Capital Partners had purchased "certain Irish and UK assets of Waterford Wedgwood and the assets of several of its Irish and UK subsidiaries" in a transaction expected to be completed in March.
