(Reuters) – Singaporean agri-business company Wilmar International reported a 5% rise in its first-half core net profit on Tuesday, boosted by strong performance in its food products and feed & industrial products segments.
The company, one of the world’s largest food producers, said core net profit was $606.3 million for the half year ended June 30, compared with $577.2 million last year.
