Operational Commentary

Waste and spoilage declined sharply thanks to FEFO enforcement, temperature sensors and refrigeration tune‑ups. Electricity costs were reduced by a time‑of‑use schedule and a new power‑purchase agreement (~–12 %). Legal and professional services rose due to a one‑off supplier arbitration and M&A diligence, while marketing expenses reflect the seasonal SME campaign. Rent increased temporarily for a satellite DC to handle Q4 peaks; this lease expires in January.
