YAVNE, Israel – November 17, 2025 - G. Willi-Food International Ltd. (NASDAQ: WILC) (the “Company” or “Willi-Food”), a global company that specializes in the development, marketing and international distribution of kosher foods, today announced its unaudited financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025.

Zwi Williger & Joseph Williger, Chairman & CEO, respectively, of Willi-Food, commented:

 

 “We are pleased to present G. Willi-Food International’s third quarter 2025 results, as well as strong results for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025. The Company delivered improved gross and operating profit margins compared to the same periods last year, alongside strong sales performance.

Despite approximately three fewer working days during the quarter, we succeeded in maintaining the same level of sales, reflecting the strength and resilience of our operations.

Following the cessation of the war in Gaza, the decline in exchange rates have further supported our ability to improve import prices and strengthen the competitive alternative that Willi-Food offers to the market.

The constructed new refrigerated logistics center is progressing as planned, and we expect to open the center toward the end of the first quarter of 2026. This advanced facility represents a significant milestone for the Company, as it is expected to enhance our logistical capabilities to support entry into new food categories, increase product availability, expand existing lines, and achieve meaningful cost efficiencies.

We remain optimistic about the continued positive momentum, driven by our operational excellence, strategic investments, and the dedication of our team, as we continue to build long-term value for our shareholders.”
