Cranswick - Strong growth continues in H1

Cranswick posted another strong set of results (adjusted H1 pre-tax profit up 17%), demonstrating that the company’s innovation is keeping the products relevant and desirable to both consumers and retailers. As part of a material capex programme, management is embarking upon a significant expansion of its poultry business: a new state-of-the-art facility in Suffolk will double its existing capacity. Poultry currently represents just 11% of sales but continues to be an attractive target market for the company, given its growth.
