Chiquita UK has reported a slight dip in pre-tax profit for 2014.
The accounts – posted at Companies House – cover the period just before the international banana giant was acquired by the Cutrale-Safra group.
Pre-tax profit fell from £534,676 in 2013, to £522,734 in 2014. Turnover, meanwhile, rose from £30.7 million to £31.2m.
Director John Cockle noted that he ecxpects the market for fresh produce to remain highly competitive for the foreseeable future, with the main risks for Chiquita UK coming from the supply chain and EU legislation policies.
