Christian Salvesen expects year on year growth for the six months to September 30, 2006 to hit "around 7%". Similar growth is expected for the second half of the year. The UK transport business is undergoing an operating efficiency programme, while a sale and leaseback of some of its UK property produced "aggregate cash proceeds of £48m", the company says. New contracts are in place with Inter link Foods, Marks and Spencer and Tesco. Full interim results will be released next month.
