SHEEZAN INTERNATIONAL LIMITED
ANNUAL REPORT 2003
Directors' Report to the Members
We are pleased to present the 40* Annual Report of
Shezan International Limited together with the Audited
Accounts for the year ended June 30, 2003.
The year 2002-2003 was a challenging year for the
company in view of the country's economic environment.
We are facing all these challenges and are taking
necessary action to maintain our position as one of the
leading processors of fruits and vegetables in the
country.
Our efforts are based on two fronts i.e. maintain our
market share and at the same time to get fair margin
on our products. We are also trying to achieve these
objectives by diversifying into new products in order to
enhance the sales and profitability of the company.
There is an open competition in the market due to new
entrants and imported products, since our country is
signatory to WTO, it is expected that the duties of
finished products would be gradually reduced and
because of this we have to gear up our marketing team
and make all out efforts to maintain our sales and
profitability.
1 am pleased to inform our shareholders that inspite of
above scenario our sales figures increased from
Rs. 772.1 86 million to Rs. 833.991 million during this year.
Financial results:
Our profit for the year ended June 30, 2003 was less
than last year. There was a slight decrease which was
primarily due to substantial increase in the selling and
distribution expenses which were necessary to maintain
market share of our products.
