Kerry has recipe for success

The global food ingredients group is tapping into food megatrends, such as clean labels and plant-based meat alternatives
June 4, 2020

Starting out life as a small private dairy company in Ireland, dual-listed Kerry (KYGA) is now a leading player in the global food industry. Through its ‘taste and nutrition’ business – which accounts for more than 80 per cent of its revenue – the group provides flavourings and ingredients, such as emulsifiers, to the food and beverage markets. Its focus on natural products is tapping into the growing trend of ‘green consumerism’, whereby people are looking for more environmentally friendly and healthy food.
