Despite slightly lower sales last year, cost savings have resulted in higher net profits for Sligro, although profitability in Belgium is still lagging behind. The food service wholesaler is seeing a cautious recovery in the market.
Consumers are spending a little more
Sligro had already reported in an update at the beginning of January that sales had fallen last year as a result of the discontinuation of tobacco sales. Excluding tobacco, sales rose by 1.7% in 2025, from €2.6 billion to €2.7 billion. Thanks to a cautious recovery in the sales markets and control over costs, operating profit (EBIT) rose by €11 million to €54 million and net profit by €6 million to €30 million.
