Peter McGahan remembers his Tayto crisps costing 2p - but then inflation took over Gary McDonald Business Editor 16 April, 2021 01:00
ONLINE sales of tens of thousands of extra bags of its famous Tayto cheese & onion brand haven t translated into a major revenues boost for its owner Manderley Food Group, according to its latest accounts.
The UK s largest producer of snack foods did swing back into a modest profit in the year to last June from a narrow loss in the previous 12 months.
But over the year, revenues barely moved, coming in at £207.2 million against £207.8 million in 2019.
And its bottom-line profit of £59,439 (against a previous-year loss of £115,515) was just a paltry 0.3 per cent of sales.
