Quote:

Graham Clark, Managing Director, commented:

“The 2012/2013 sugar season has begun well, with our production at the half year up 17% and our half year operating profit on a seasonal basis increasing to R854m. This pleasing performance is on the back of an anticipated group cane production record for the season with a notable recovery in South Africa following excellent rainfall after the prior drought. We have continued to focus on enhancing efficiencies across our operations and have benefited from better market conditions for sugar. We expect this positive momentum to continue for the full year.”
