HKScan’s net sales growth continued, but profitability weakened by sharply higher energy prices. In July-September, net sales increased by more than 16% to EUR 520.8 (446.8) million. The Group’s comparable EBIT was EUR 3.8 (7.7) million.
Securing local food production is our shared mission. Smart practices ensure that you can always rely on the quality, responsibility and safety of the food produced in HKScan’s home markets. HKScan’s familiar brands and great-tasting food have been an important part of Northern Europeans’ food moments for over a hundred years. Now we all need to pull together so that we can continue to enjoy local food for the next hundred years.
HKScan has set the goal of carbon neutrality of its own industrial production by the end of 2025 and carbon neutrality of the entire food chain from farms to consumers by the end of 2040 at the latest. Climate work is carried out in all our home market areas in Finland, Sweden, the Baltics and Denmark.
