PAUL COCKS
SIMONDS Farsons Cisk plc an-
nounced a pre-tax profit of €15.3 mil-
lion, up from €12.2 million in the pre-
vious year, as the Group published its
financial results for the year ending 31
January 2023.
The Group's turnover reached €118.2
million, an increase of 28.8 % from last
year's figure, with improved revenue
across all areas of operation.
These improved results come in the
wake of the particularly challenging
global macroeconomic and geopolit-
ical developments which the Group
had to navigate through during the
year.
These included the impact of the
Ukraine war and the lingering effects
of Covid-19, to which the Group was
highly exposed as a result of the im-
pact of the pandemic on the hospitali-
ty and entertainment industry.
Notwithstanding these circumstanc-
es, the Farsons Group increased its
volumes across various beverage and
food categories.
