REVENUE
PBT
Revenue from the Plantation Division
increased 30.4% or RM34.24 million due to
stronger Crude Palm Oil (“CPO”) and Crude
Palm Oil Kernel (“CPKO”) selling prices
despite the lower volumes of FFB harvested
compared to last year. Food Division also
recorded stronger revenue on the back of
improved sales in the tuna segment.
