“Our company continues to generate strong results in a difficult economic environment,” said Robert Weis, Weis Markets’ chairman.

Weis recognised that fuel and wholesale inflation impacted the company but said the business did not pass these costs on to its consumers.

“Our company continues to benefit from improved operating performance and execution at store level, increased supply chain efficiencies and a disciplined and effective go-to-market strategy,” Weis added.
