LONDON--Food wholesaler Booker Group PLC (BOK.LN) Thursday reported marginal increase in same store sales for the last quarter of its fiscal 2017 year, and said total sales for the full-year will be around 7% ahead of last year.
For the 12 weeks to March 24, the company recorded like-for-like sales growth of 0.7% and total sales growth of 0.5%. Non-tobacco same store sales grew by 4.7%, while tobacco sales declined 7.5% due to the tobacco display ban and new plain packaging restrictions.
The company, which in January agreed to merge with U.K.'s largest supermarket chain Tesco PLC (TSCO.LN) in a 3.7 billion pounds ($4.59 billion) cash and stock deal, said sales for the 52 weeks ended March 24 will total GBP5.3 billion. Like-for-like non-tobacco sales increased by 2.8% and tobacco sales reduced by 4.6% during the fiscal year, the company added.
Booker operates a nationwide cash-and-carry network of 200 stores, serving independent retailers, catering and small-business customers and other places where food is available such as pubs and cinemas. It is slated to publish its fiscal 2017 results on May 18.
