Peter Shaw, Chief Executive of DP Poland said:

“Q4 2014 saw an inflection point in store performance with total store EBITDA positive each month for the first time. Q1 2015 saw a further strengthening in the EBITDA performance of our corporate stores and our franchisees report continuing improvement in their store profitability.

With the establishment of the commissary as a profit centre in Q4 2014, following the franchising of a third of the store estate, we are seeing the variable profit of commissary beginning to build through royalties on retail sales, sales of food and non-food items to franchisees.

2015 promises to be another year of progress as our maturing stores deliver growing returns and we extend the estate into new cities.”
