The overall goal of Perstop’s expansion is boosting next generation solutions for gut health and preservation.

“Consumer demands favor next generation solutions such as the ones we provide,” stated Roger Mann, Executive Vice President. “Perstorp has seen this potential. Enlarging our presence allows us to meet these demands. By strategically strengthening and expanding Feed & Food we can keep offering next generation solutions all around the world.”

Feed & Food is doubling the number of employees in R&D, regulatory affairs, supply chain, operations, marketing and sales. The plant in Waspik, the Netherlands will be the heart of the Business Area and home to many of the new employees.

According to Mann, the key to a smooth organization is putting the right people in the right place. In the process of recruiting, Mann underlines the importance of hiring people with a passion for agri-food and outstanding skills. “We want our people to have a deep understanding of farmers’, veterinarians’ and nutritionists’ needs. In this ever changing world with its constantly shifting demands, we have to keep pace with the customer’s demands.”
