Willi-Food Q2 2026 results show margin expansion and logistics-driven growth

Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting

Results show meaningful margin expansion and a credible growth catalyst (logistics center). A stronger balance sheet and cash flow backdrop support upside in the near term, provided the center ramps as planned. Currency tailwinds may sustain margins, though equity markets will be watching the center’s integration and any SG&A creep.
