Steers and Wimpy-owner Famous Brands has hiked its full-year dividend by more than 80%, reporting earnings that rose more than a third as it benefitted from the lifting of Covid-19 restrictions that saw South Africans flocking back to restaurants.

Headline earnings per share were also up 37% to 488c, while its dividends per share rose 82% to 363c.A deep dive into the big business story of the week, as well as expert analysis of markets and trends.
