Helsinki, February 24, 2026 – The Europe Today: Finland’s leading food group Fazer has reported a record operating profit for 2025, reflecting steady growth and resilient performance amid challenging market conditions.
The company posted an operating profit of EUR 77.8 million, up from EUR 75.9 million in the previous year. The result corresponds to an operating margin of 6.5 percent, marking the strongest performance in the company’s history.
Fazer attributed the improved profitability to operational efficiency, portfolio development, and disciplined cost management across its core business segments.
Positive Market Outlook for 2026
Looking ahead, the company expressed a positive market outlook for 2026. A key contributing factor is the expectation that cocoa raw material prices will decline compared to 2025 levels, easing cost pressures in its confectionery operations.
Lower cocoa prices could provide improved margin flexibility and support further earnings growth, particularly within Fazer’s chocolate and sweets segment.
Fazer remains focused on sustainable growth, innovation, and strengthening its position in the Nordic and international markets as it enters the new financial year with cautious optimism.
