The company said it grew profits despite pressure imposed by supermarket chains to reduce prices and despite pressures in global commodity costs.
Sales in the period amounted to NIS286.5m, an 8.4% increase on the prior year period.
“We were able to achieve sales growth through successfully launching new items into our product line, as well as increasing sales of existing products to new and existing customers, while controlling SG&A expense growth,” chairman Zwi Williger said.
