ISLAMABAD (WNAM REPORT):FrieslandCampina Engro Pakistan Limited (FCEPL) announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30th, 2025.
The packaged milk category continues to remain in decline post the imposition of sales tax last year. The company’s focused execution resulted in partially gaining back the volumes along with growing its market share. Whilst the revenue for the period is lower by 2.8% as compared to year to date period last year, the gross margins improved by 130bps due to cost rationalization and better product-mix.
Campaign launched aimed towards strengthening brand equity and activated it across TV, digital & in-store touchpoints. Continued focus and investment on Olper’s Cream and Flavored milk resulted in volume growth despite competition from established players.
The Frozen Dessert category successfully delivered a 15% value growth since last year. The segment continued to introduce innovative offerings at attractive price points while optimizing the product portfolio.
