AGM Statement
Bill Ronald, Chairman of Fever-Tree, the world's leading supplier of premium carbonated mixers, will make the following statement at the Group's Annual General Meeting to be held at 11.30am today.
"2018 was a year of significant progress for Fever-Tree. The Group reinforced its market leading position in the UK, successfully established its own operations in the US and the business made real progress across Europe.
The beginning of 2019 has seen further encouraging operational progress across our key international regions as the Group continues to invest in widening and deepening its distribution networks. Whilst we are mindful of last year's exceptional summer trading performance in the UK, we remain confident in achieving Board expectations for the full year ending 31 December 2019."
