The owner of Tennent’s lager said it was on track to deliver single-digit operating profit growth this year.
Dublin-based C&C Group said its Scottish and Irish operations had delivered a “solid performance” in the four months to July 3.
The firm said it expected to complete integration of the newly acquired Wallaces Express wine and spirit wholesale business with Tennent’s by the end of this year.
While performance in the US was weak in the first four months of the year, the company said it was in line with management expectations and confirmed the group remained on track to deliver full-year operating profit growth in the year to February 2015.
