Peter Shaw, Chief Executive of DP Poland said:

"2017 delivered significant growth in System Sales, through a combination of robust like-for-likes and 19 store openings. While we experienced increased pressures in cost of sale, both labour and food, we expect these pressures to reduce through 2018.

Poland's delivery market is expanding and we are taking a lead in that expansion, through great product, service and price, supported by a strong marketing programme and store roll-out.

We commenced national television advertising in January 2018 and early results are encouraging."

The company will release its full year results for 2017 on 27 March 2018.
