“Our strategy of diversifying our company’s product offerings is having a positive impact on our financial performance and we are pleased to report another quarter of improved results,” said president and CEO Jim Williams. “These improvements are the result of several factors: strong sales in our retail supermarket pasta/sauce category, strong growth with our largest club customer, reduced operating costs, and accretive earnings from our two acquisitions completed earlier this year. 50% of total revenues for the most recent quarter were driven by the four acquisitions we have completed during the past three years.”


“Our pasta business is showing improvement due largely to the success of our new whole wheat pasta line that is being enthusiastically received by the marketplace,” he said. Monterey’s branded retail pasta/sauce sales increased 31% in the second quarter 2005 compared to the second quarter 2004. Also, our Grilled Wraps and prepared entrees continue to grow in sales.”
