“In the year we have deepened our relationships with existing customers and secured new customers across both existing and new geographies, all while continually broadening our ranges, formats, and flavours.
“With solid progress behind us and encouraging trading trends continuing, we are focused on key opportunities with a view to continuing our ambition to become the world’s most trusted and innovative sports nutrition, health, and wellness brand.”
