IMCD and BENEO in partnership deal

IMCD Benelux has announced signing a distribution agreement with BENEO, a leading manufacturer of functional ingredients.

This deal includes products such as the dietary fibres inulin and oligofructose, the sugar replacer isomalt, the tooth friendly sugar Palatinose as well as rice derivatives like starches, flours, proteins, brans, etc. The partnership is effective immediately and covers all of Benelux.

Nadine Depré, Business Unit Manager Food & Nutrition at IMCD Benelux, explained: “We are always looking to expand our current product portfolio with best in class manufacturers. This partnership will further enable IMCD Benelux to provide complete service to our customers in the region.

“We see BENEO as yet another right partner in being able to provide high quality products and services, thus bringing new solutions to the market.”

With nutrition being an important, growing segment for IMCD Benelux, BENEO’s starches bring a synergistic match for other hydrocolloids in IMCD’s existing portfolio.

“The comprehensive market knowledge as well as IMCD’s professional approach to the food and nutrition market in Benelux, supported by their Food & Nutrition Technical Centre in Mechelen, convinced us that IMCD is the right partner for BENEO,” explains Vincent Caluwaerts, Area Sales Manager at BENEO.
