“Q4 was the culmination of a transitional year for Pennexx during which we experienced tremendous growth due to an escalating market demand for case-ready meat,” said Michael Queen, president and CEO. “The primary success of the Q4 reflected an increase in volume of products handled as well as a favourable product mix of higher margin, whole muscle products such as lamb and veal. Along with a solid revenue increase, we realised improved yield and labour efficiency, which resulted in our profit in the Q4.”

By GlobalDataQueen continued: “We are currently operating at full capacity at the Pottstown facility, which represents increased volume from the Q4 of 2001. To be able to accommodate future growth, we are acquiring a new plant in Philadelphia. When that new facility is operational, we expect that the company will be able to process significantly higher volumes of meat. From that time onward, as a result of the increased volumes, we expect that revenues and results from operations will compare favourably to the revenues and results of operations for the same periods in prior years.”
