Plant-Ex Ingredients Ltd, a leading European manufacturer of Natural Colours and Flavours for the global food and beverage industry has announced today that it has acquired Aromacolors, a respected Polish food technology company specialising in high-quality liquid and powder flavourings and colourings.
This strategic acquisition significantly strengthens Plant-Ex’s operational footprint across Europe and marks a major milestone in the company’s continued global expansion. With existing facilities in the far west and southeast of Europe, the addition of Aromacolors’ central European facility completes strategically aligned manufacturing and logistics, optimising service and supply across key European markets.
Aromacolors’ expertise aligns seamlessly with Plant-Ex’s portfolio, bringing advanced technical capabilities and a shared commitment to quality, innovation and clean-label solutions. The move will deliver substantial logistical and commercial advantages in a post-Brexit market, eliminating customs delays and reducing both time to market and operational costs for customers throughout the EU and beyond.
Giles Drewett, CEO and founder of Plant-Ex, said: “We are thrilled to welcome Aromacolors into the Plant-Ex group. Their exceptional product range and technical knowhow are a natural fit with our vision and values. This acquisition is not just about growth, it’s about reinforcing our position as a dominant force in the natural ingredients sector. Our customers across Europe and globally will benefit from enhanced local support, rapid sample turnaround and increased manufacturing capacity, enabling us to serve with greater speed, scale and sophistication.”
Edward Budzulak, CEO of Aromacolors, commented: “This marks an exciting new chapter for Aromacolors. Becoming part of Plant-Ex opens up new opportunities to enhance our capabilities and bring even more value to our customers across Europe. With a broader product offering and access to expanded resources, we are well positioned to support continued innovation and growth in the European market.”
This acquisition signals a bold step forward for Plant-Ex, reaffirming its ambition to lead the industry in innovation, agility and customer focus.
