Value chain

Specialization and quality across our value chain

We have full control of our value chain – from the fields to the fruit and vegetable processing plants and our global network of factories.

This ensures a consistent supply of quality products that deliver excellent performance – time and time again.

Our sourcing team lives and works in the areas where our crops are grown. We have close contact with our growing partners and are always the first to know about local conditions that could influence harvest and delivery. This means, when necessary, we can act quickly to ensure your forecasted supply is not interrupted. 

Global production excellence

Our production network spans all regions around the globe. Our factories support the ideal balance between raw material proximity and market-related needs. Every factory has a specialty, ranging from vegetable processing to technical specialties such as spray drying, or a specific market focus like China or the US.

We uphold a culture of continuous improvement through operational excellence. This involves safe working conditions for all and sustainable operations across our value chain.

Quality for our customers, our processes, and our products

Food safety is our top priority. We require 100% traceability on our products and maintain the required GFSI food safety certifications (like FSSC 22000) at all sites, along with other certifications like kosher and halal.

Our quality management system is our foundation for ongoing performance improvement. We rely on it to help meet customer needs and expectations and ensure compliance for food safety, product quality, and processes.
