TOKYO, May 14 (Pulse News Wire) – Ishii Food CO.,LTD. (2894.T) reported robust revenue growth for its fiscal year ending March 2026, driven by strong sales across various product lines.
However, operating profit declined sharply due to increased investments in equipment and future expenses. Revenue reached ¥10.90 billion, marking a significant increase of approximately 101%. Despite efforts to reduce manufacturing costs through production efficiency measures such as reduced overtime and energy savings, operating profit was ¥15 million compared to ¥267 million last year.
The company attributed the decline to higher investment in safety improvements and labor environment enhancements, along with additional future expense provisions. Looking ahead, Ishii Food forecasts continued investment in new products and regional ingredient development while maintaining a focus on cost management amid rising raw material and energy prices. The company expects to achieve a turnaround in operating profit, projecting ¥150 million for the next fiscal year.
