...”The business has recorded a positive second quarter of FY19, lifting sales of our proprietary brands (including Matso’s) by 54% compared to the same quarter in the previous year. The uplift in sales was primarily driven by a 27% increase in sales to the independent retail channel and a 38% increase draught keg sales, which excludes keg sales to Optus Stadium. The addition of the recently acquired Matso’s brands has also contributed to the result.
