On Tuesday, Britvic will unveil its full-year results and highlight the struggles retailers face in the current environment in Ireland.

The company has already signalled that asset impairment here is expected – particularly in relation to goodwill - and the business model will change.

Proposals have already been put to employees to restructure its operations and news on the financial implications arising from that will be announced when they become available.

Despite the woes, the company has gained both volume and value share in the most recent 12-week period in both the grocery and convenience markets.

Elsewhere the news is more encouraging with the integration of Britvic France happening in line with expectations and revenue growth in the rest of the operation is well ahead of historical norms.
