Likewise, the group’s operating profit improved in the third quarter, rising 6,8% to NIS227m. As a result, nine-month operating profit was down just 1.2% on the year to NIS603m. The company attributed the rebound to an improved performance from its coffee business in Israel.

Meanwhile, lower financing and tax costs lifted net profit in the three-month period. Third-quarter income rose to NIS158m, up 41%. For the nine months, net income grew 9.7% to NIS379, Strauss revealed.
