1996 Annual Report
Sales set a new record for the eleventh consecutive year in 1996. Dividends were increased for the tenth year in a row. Three major capital improvement projects begun in our 1995 fiscal year, including the two largest in the Company’s 64 year history, were completed with a total capitalized cost of $12,000,000. Net income for 1996 was $5.7 million, which reflects a decrease from 1995 due to extremely high raw material costs in both our meat and bakery divisions.
