Azcar Technologies Inc. had third quarter revenues of $16.6-million compared with revenues of $18.6-million in the third quarter of 2008. Despite the drop in revenue resulting from customer capital project delays related to the current global recession, Azcar continues to focus on improving project execution as evidenced by its gross margin which rose in the third quarter to 23.6 per cent of revenue versus 22.5 per cent of revenue in the third quarter of 2008.
