Straight plc confident on full year expectations
James Newman, the chairman, said ahead of today's AGM that the Straight's retail business is now making a positive contribution to the group, thanks to the contract win in April to supply compost bins to a purchasing organisation. "(Retail] sales are currently higher than in 2009," said Mr Newman.
He added: "The integration of the Helesi UK business, which the group acquired in March 2010, is progressing well and to schedule. As a result of the continued progress being made throughout the group, the board is confident that its expectations for the full year will be met."
