“This facility will improve the flexibility of our offerings to the Chinese animal nutrition market,” said Aart Mateboer, business unit director, Animal Nutrition. “We look forward to providing our key accounts a more customized offering, as well as a larger range of packaging sizes to better meet our customers’ needs. It provides us enhanced capabilities to launch many new products out of our global R&D pipeline to support the evolving needs of our customers in China.”

“We are pleased to add our Animal Nutrition products to the portfolio we support at our Wuxi facility and offer world-class quality with very local customization to our China customers,” said Katariina Rasinmaki, global manufacturing & supply chain leader.
