Grupo Herdez, S.A.B. de C.V. provided earnings guidance for the full year of 2020 and 2021. Full year top line growth will stay at the mid single-digit rate while consolidated EBIT and EBITDA should be flattish versus 2019.
Even though guidance for 2021 is too early, the company feels optimistic by improved portfolio, innovation, the consumption environment, productivity changes at Frozen post pandemic and a strong balance sheet.
