Carlsberg Brewery Malaysia expects to turn around two years of negative profit growth by posting a rise in pretax profits this year, the Bernama news agency said today, quoting Carlsberg Chairman Jorgen Bornhoft.
Despite the impact of the SARS virus, Borhhoft said: “We are looking at every possibility of an uptrend (in pretax profit) this year.”
