業務進展：
The company saw retail segment sales growth driven by volume gains, largely from Lancaster's licensing program.
After exiting certain bakery product lines, the company now intends to focus on areas like dressings, sauces, and frozen bakery which align with its strategic scale.
Expecting to benefit from an expanding licensing program, the company is proactive in pursuing cost savings initiatives to enhance gross profit.

Gains in food service industry shares have been recorded, and the company is planning to capitalize on evolving customer preferences by introducing new sauces.
As part of their strategic growth plan, the company is also exploring options for further expansion while keeping an eye on their production capacity facilitated by the updated SAP implementation and facility expansion.

該公司預計將從不斷擴大的許可計劃中受益，因此積極採取節省成本的舉措以提高毛利。
儘管經濟放緩幅度很大，但該公司還是通過提高自動化程度、改善設施和戰略再投資來節省成本。
餐飲服務行業的份額有所上漲，該公司計劃通過推出新的調味料來利用不斷變化的客戶偏好。
作爲其戰略增長計劃的一部分，該公司還在探索進一步擴張的選項，同時密切關注最新的SAP實施和設施擴張推動的生產能力。
他們仍然樂觀，預計未來幾個季度將持續增長。
