IFF opens new facility in India

International Flavors & Fragrances Inc is opening of a new facility in India to house creative, technical, sensory, and sales professionals for the company's flavours business unit. The facility located in Gurgaon, the industrial and financial centre in Delhi, will service companies that provide prepared foods, sweets, beverages, and dairy products to the Indian market.

"Our increased presence in India furthers our ongoing strategy to expand our geographic reach and create infrastructure to serve emerging markets, especially those enjoying the most dynamic growth rates and demographics," said Doug Tough, chairman and CEO.

This investment follows announcements of the new creative centre in Shanghai, a major upgrade to the creative centre in Mumbai, and the groundbreaking of two new manufacturing plants in Asia – a flavours production facility in Guangzhou and a liquid flavours and fragrances compounding site in Singapore.
