Brenntag Specialties will showcase its latest innovations at foodpro 2023, presenting concepts made with ingredients that promote functional eating and drinking without compromising on taste. 

The concepts address key areas such as gut and mental health, muscle recovery, gluten-free options, egg shortages, clean label products, and pure indulgence.

Brenntag regional commercial director for nutrition, Australia and New Zealand, Michele McNamara, expressed Brenntag's commitment to meeting the demands of their customers.

"Our customers are seeking premium quality ingredients from around the world, and Brenntag is well-positioned to provide these ingredients and value-added solutions," said McNamara.

Visitors to the booth will have the opportunity to sample a variety of products, including prebiotic gummies, prebiotic protein mocha balls, plant-based shakes, chocolate-coated macadamias with French flavours, mango yogurt drinks with foamers and creamers, gluten and egg-free carrot cake, ice cream and rainbow cookies.

In addition to its showcase, Brenntag has strategically expanded its value-added proposition to the market through the acquisition of Ravenswood, a specialties distributor in Australia and New Zealand, in December 2022.

This acquisition has provided Brenntag with blending capabilities, further enhancing their ability to meet the evolving needs of Brenntag customers in Australia and New Zealand.

Brenntag can be found at stand E2 at foodpro 2023.
