Chief Executive’s Commentary
Chief Executive Officer Kevin Toland: «Our Q3 performance, which follows a consistent period of improving revenue performance, shows sequential improvement in terms of Group organic revenue. We are addressing the challenges presented to our business, particularly in the North American market where sales stabilisation continues to be challenging whilst profitability has been stabilised. Continued stabilisation of the business, delivering for our customer base and realising the expected benefits from Project Renew remains our absolute focus within the current financial year.» For additional information please read Aryzta’s PDF file below (94 KB).
