Irish drinks firm C&C Group has posted a 3.2% increase in net revenue, to €1.57 billion, in its full-year results, boosted by the acquisition of the Matthew Clark and Bibendum businesses last year.
Commenting on the businesses' performance, Stephen Glancey, the group's chief executive, described full-year 2019 as a "transformational year for the company. Despite strong multi-beverage brand-led positions in Ireland and Scotland, access to the wider UK on-trade had always been a challenge.
"The acquisition of Matthew Clark and Bibendum changes this dynamic," Glancey added.
