Wed, 1 Dec 2010 00:00:00 +0200 http://www.pioneerfoods.co.za/media/press_release.asp?Id2=24 http://www.pioneerfoods.co.za/media/press_release.asp?Id2=24 Andre Hanekom MD commented: "We achieved this satisfactory set of results in a deflationary environment where in the second half of the year, selling prices in key categories either stabilised or contracted. Our earnings growth for the year, though relatively strong, basically brings us back to even keel, after the slow or declining growth we showed in recent reporting periods. An excellent performance from Sasko improved our capacity utilisation with increased sales volumes in maize products in particular, which led to margin growth.

Tue, 10 Feb 2009 00:00:00 +0200 http://www.pioneerfoods.co.za/media/press_release.asp?Id2=20 http://www.pioneerfoods.co.za/media/press_release.asp?Id2=20 "We are pleased with our results overall, though we recognise our growth is off a relatively low base. We had satisfactory revenue growth, largely from price increases up to October last year, when the prices of grain based products peaked. Sales volumes were largely sustained, with maize meal growing particularly strongly. There has been selling price decreases towards the end of the reporting period in wheaten flour, maize meal, pasta and wheat based cereals, which should support consumer demand. We expect to maintain our margin as food inflation moderates and the food price environment stabilises."
