WYNNSTAY GROUP PLC
('Wynnstay Group')
AGM STATEMENT
Wynnstay Group, the agricultural supplies and services business based in Wales,
will be holding its Annual General Meeting today and Chairman, John Davies, will
issue the following statement on current trading,
'Trading in the first four months of the new financial year has been in line
with expectations and the Group continues to benefit from the broad spread of
its agricultural activities.
The Feeds Division saw some reduction in demand for animal feeds as a result of
the mild winter weather but the Arable Division benefited from the favourable
planting conditions for cereal seeds. Our Retail Division continues to make good
progress, with strong demand in pet and equine products. It is also seeing
encouraging results from its programme to upgrade those stores acquired with the
purchase of Eifionydd Farmers Association. Foxmoor Limited, the pot plant
producer, which now trades as a fourth division within the Group, has a full
order book from major retailers and garden centres for both the spring and
summer periods.
In joint ventures, Wyro Developments has sold the first two phases of its
housing development at Newtown, in Powys, and has started work on a
company-owned site in North Wales.'
