AdvancePierre Foods Holdings has booked a dip in net sales for the third quarter of the year in the group’s first results reported since its acquisition last month of cooked and raw beef and chicken Philly steak products manufacturer Allied Specialty Foods.
Net sales were US393.7m compared to $407.2m for the third quarter of 2015, which the US sandwich maker said was mainly due to eliminating lower margin business in its Industrial segment, which reduced net sales by $14m “and to strategic price and trade spending investments to reflect lower raw material costs”, which reduced net sales by $8.8m.
