Trading Update

McBride plc, Europe's leading provider of Private Label Household and Personal Care products, today provides a trading update following the end of the Group's third quarter, the three month period to 31 March 2015.

The Board confirms that its expectations for the full year remain unchanged.

For the quarter to 31 March 2015, Group Revenues were 2.6% higher and Private Label sales 2.9% higher on a constant currency basis than the comparable quarter in 2014.  Sales in UK and Italy showed modest growth but France and Spain remained challenging. The German market continued to deliver the growth levels seen in the first half.

The UK restructuring project is progressing well and remains fully on track.
