Rising sales at home and abroad have led to a jump in annual profits at Brazilian food giant Perdigao.
The company said yesterday (25 February) that operating income leapt 163.3% to BRL503.9m (US$295m).
Net sales rose 27.3% to BRL6.6bn as exports climbed 30%, helped by strong international demand and despite the appreciation of the Brazilian real against the US dollar.
Perdigao said domestic sales rose 25.9% thanks in part to rising dairy volumes.
