“Although we are going through a period of international crisis, our businesses are nevertheless growing,” Ebro said. “We have seen that by implementing cost-cutting measures, investing in advertising and innovation and finding synergies between our businesses, we have achieved almost double-digit growth rates, far beyond even our own targets.

“The evolution of raw material prices will not affect us in 2011. We are specialists in raw materials and we successfully manage both in volatility and stability environments,” it added.
