| DIRECTORS'
REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS |
|
|
|
| Dear
Shareholders, |
|
|
| Your
directors are pleased to present you their report and audited accounts of the
Company for the year ended on |
|
| 30th
June 1996. |
|
|
| The
year under review was not too conducive to business conditions characterizing
our country which are unfavorably |
|
| affecting
consumers and industries which resulted in a downward trend in the edible oil
industries. |
|
|
| SALES |
|
| Sales
during the year 1996 decreased in volume. The consumers purchasing power came
under severe pressure |
|
| which
resulted in consumers switching to the cheaper brands of ghee. Moreover the
subsidised GCP ghee sold |
|
| through
the Utility Stores Corporation created distortion in the market. |
|
|
| The
law and order situation in Karachi prevailed which disturbed the normal
distribution of the product in the various |
|
| localities
of the city, besides the distributors of the Company remained scared due to
their vans looted on gun point |
|
| which
affected adversely the availability of the products in the affected areas. |
|
|
| GROSS
PROFIT |
|
| The
gross profit of the Company in 1996 decreased to 8.19% from 9.42% in 1995,
owing to increase in the cost of |
|
| production
particularly the packing material cost, fuel and power cost which have
increased 35°/; and 30% respectively |
|
| and
the selling price of the products remained unchanged. |
|
|
| Administrative
expenses increased 18.51% the financial expenses also increased on banking
short term financial |
|
| facility
in order to meet the cash requirements of the company. |
|
|
| The
company has been engaged in reorganizing various departments with particular
emphasis on restructuring |
|
| marketing
and sales department. This is expected to result in improvement in sales and
resultant profitability. |
|
|
| The
company has started a cost-control exercise to rationalize and reduce its
expenses. This alongwith improvement |
|
| in
the selling prices will improve the performance of the company. |
|
|
| The
relations with the management and unionized staff remained cordial during the
year. The directors place on record |
|
| their
sincere effort and the good work done by the workers, staff and officers. |
|
|
| APPOINTMENT
OF AUDITORS |
|
| You
are requested to appoint auditors for the year ending June 30, 1997 and fix
their remuneration. The retiring |
|
| auditors
M/s. Taseer Hadi Khalid & Company, Chartered Accountants have offered
themselves for re-appointment. |
