Income for the period dropped to NIS74m (US$19.5m) from NIS84m in the comparable period of 2008.


Operating profit also dipped to NIS135m from NIS137m in the prior year. The drop was due to lower operating profit for the company’s coffee sector. Pre-tax profit, however, increased 5% to reach NIS134m.

Net sales for the period edged up 1.2% to NIS1.52bn.
