ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING - CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

4th May 2006

At the Annual General Meeting of Aga Foodservice Group plc today, the Chairman,
Vic Cocker said:-

"In 2005, we have delivered another strong set of results and made good
progress towards our objective of making Aga Foodservice a market leader in the
premium consumer and commercial cooker and refrigeration markets. The organic
revenue and profit growth was driven by good performances by Aga, Rangemaster,
Aga Bakery and Williams, our commercial refrigeration operation.

Today I should like to reiterate the comments I made in the preliminary results
announcement in March. The start of 2006 has seen a continuation of the
progress well established in 2005. In Consumer, the strengths of our product
offering reduces our vulnerability to consumer market weaknesses. In the UK and
internationally, we expect to sustain topline momentum. Orders to date at Aga
and Rangemaster suggest another sound trading performance.

In Foodservice, Aga Bakery continues to gather force in traditional European
markets and our product range is now better known by the major supermarket
groups. With the expansion of our strong foodservice offering now including
refrigeration, fryers and steamers, we have the products to meet the needs of
commercial customers.

We see 2006 as another year where our systematic approach to development will
aid progress and we are well positioned to continue the expansion we have
already seen."
