LONDON--British food company Cranswick PLC (CWK.LN) said Thursday strong volume growth and robust Christmas trading resulted in higher third quarter revenue, compared with the prior year period.

The pork and sausage producer also said it incurred higher input costs in the three months to Dec. 31,2016, which were partially mitigated by efficiency improvements, internal pig production and constructive pricing talks with customers.

The company remains confident in its prospects for the remainder part of fiscal 2017.
