At the annual general meeting of shareholders, Managing Director Koen Slippens said that Sligro expects to achieve a positive EBITDA in Belgium this year. However, he would not say exactly how much this profit before depreciation and tax will be: any positive result is already a major step forward, he told Dutch newspaper Financieele Dagblad.
