Leicester-based poultry business Gafoor Pure Halal has reported an increase in annual turnover of 16.7% to £107.3 million in the year to 30 November 2021, after it secured a number of new contracts.
Profit before taxation more than doubled during the same period, from £1.5 million in 2020, to £3.2 million in 2021.
The company specialises in the farming, processing and distribution of Red Tractor certified and halal certified poultry to food manufacturers and wholesalers.
During the year, the company employed 317 people, up from 195 the year before. The company said this was a “pleasing” development as it demonstrated its value to the local community.
