Fonterra opens new European R&D Centre in Amsterdam
Fonterra has opened a new research & development centre in Amsterdam, its fourth such centre around the globe.
The opening concludes the migration of the New Zealand dairy cooperative’s European headquarters to Amsterdam. At the centre, Fonterra is able to perform tests of new manufacturing processes and work together with partners on tailor-made innovations. The centre will employ 10 technical specialists.
According to Koert Liekelema, general manager of Fonterra Europe, Holland is the centre of dairy and food developments: “At our new R&D Centre, we can develop innovations more easily and market them quicker. The European consumer has very specific dairy wishes and we can fulfil those wishes and needs even better and quicker out of Amsterdam.
“Europeans consume more dairy products such as milk, yogurt and cheese than consumers in other markets, and globally there’s greater awareness and attention on healthy and sustainable nutrition.”
