Vegetable specialist Bonduelle, which took full control of the Canadian firm in July, today (7 November) posted a 26.1% jump in first-quarter turnover to EUR368.8m (US$542m).
Bonduelle said its business had held up well despite “unfavourable” weather conditions during the summer.
Sales in Western Europe – historically Bonduelle’s key market – remained “strong”, the company said, but it is hoping the Aliments Carrière acquisition will give it greater exposure elsewhere.
Bonduelle said that a third of its business will remain in France, another third in the Eurozone and the final third in North America and central and Eastern Europe.
