Greif Q2 Sales Up 29 Percent

摘要

Greif Inc., Delaware, Ohio, posted net sales of $836.6 million for the second quarter of 2010 compared to $647.9 million in the second quarter of 2009. The 29 percent increase was due to higher sales volumes (33 percent, or 22 percent excluding acquisitions) and foreign currency translation (5 percent), partially offset by lower selling prices (9 percent) due to the pass-through of lower input costs.
