As stated in the press release of 6 January 2016, sales in 2015 amounted to €2,670 million, an increase of 3.8%. Discounting the effect of acquisitions, week 53 in 2015 and tobacco products, organic growth was 1.1%.
CEO Koen Slippens:
‘Sligro Food Group achieved a record profit of €81 million in 2015. Both sides of the business posted a strong increase in results. To have broken through the €80 million barrier for the first time in the year of our 80th anniversary is something we are particularly proud of! Earnings per share were up by 16.5%, at €1.84. Given that improvement, combined with a financial position that is as strong as ever, we propose to increase the dividend by €0.10 to €1.20 per share. In Foodservice we have expanded our market share to 23.1% (source: FSIN) and our share of the food retail market has remained steady, at 2.7%.'
