It added that the sugar segment recorded a significant rebound compared to Q2 2021 as anticipated due to a normalised competitive playing field, increased route to market expansion into both new and rural markets, and increased customer engagement.

The group is integrating the Honeywell business to realise the synergies anticipated with focus on restructuring the balance sheet to reduce FX exposure and ensure manufacturing stability. This is expected to lead to strong results in the long term.
