Turnover for the Pick n Pay Group for the year ended 28 February 2011 increased 5.9% to R51.9 billion while trading profit margin dropped to 2.7% as a direct result of the reduction in gross profit margin and cost inflation exceeding internal sales price inflation. Pick n Pay and Boxer combined increased turnover by 5.9% and Franklins’ turnover dropped by 3.9% in Australian dollars. Turnover growth has been modest, impacted by a national labour strike at Pick n Pay and customers exercising caution despite the dramatic fall in food inflation and many price decreases. Group like for like turnover is up 2.0% for the year.
