Integrated poultry producer Astral Foods achieved an 8.5% year-on-year increase in operating profit for the six months ended March 31, while the second half of its financial year to September 30 reflected the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic and six months of lockdown, the company reports. “We continued to execute our simple yet resilient strategy, which once again assisted the group in navigating through new challenges brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic. Astral can proudly report satisfactory results, with all its integrated operations continuing to run like clockwork during South Africa’s hard lockdown,” CEO Chris Schutte comments.
