Drinks group Cantrell & Cochrane, which also owns the Tayto crisp brand, has ruled out an early flotation, due to the current stock market volatility.
Cantrell & Cochrane today reported a sharp drop in annual pre-tax profits, from 48 million euros to 16 million.
O'Brien said the company had invested heavily in Tayto's brand and facilities and had successfully defended its position after the heavily-publicised arrival of competition in the shape of Walkers crisps earler this year.
