Food & Drink Business

The Middle East conflict is at the centre of how consumers across the Asia Pacific region are rethinking what value means, according to Mintel’s latest regional report. For manufacturers, APAC Food and Drink Landscape 2026, looks at the export markets that impacted FY26 results and the input and freight costs still working through the system.

Noumi has lifted net revenue 8.8 per cent to $648.4 million and adjusted operating EBITDA 7.6 per cent to $61.8 million in FY26, in what is likely its final full year result as a listed company.

Bega Group returned to profit in FY26, reversing the $8.5 million loss in FY25 as two years of manufacturing rationalisation took effect. Revenue rose 6.7 per cent to $3.77 billion and statutory EBITDA lifted 22.2 per cent to $202.3 million.
