- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the group's and the parent company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events
- “During the year, the Group made the decision to withdraw from its direct growing project in Morocco. While the project formed part of a broader strategy to vertically integrate supply, it was subject to ongoing operational and logistical challenges which limited its effectiveness and financial viability. The Board determined that continued investment would not align with the Group's core strengths and risk profile.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
