International Flavors & Fragrances (IFF) has opened its fully renovated and expanded facility in Cairo, Egypt.
The site has been operational since 1979, consisting of a sales office, creation and applications labs, and flavour production facilities. The expansion increases the company’s ability to provide application support across key categories for the region.
The investment supports the company’s regional focus on growth in the Middle East and Africa, as well as its focus on key categories, as it aims to provide enhanced services to customers.
IFF CEO Andreas Fibig said: “The Middle East/Africa region is a critical component of our Vision 2020 strategy. We believe the expansion and upgrade of our Cairo facility will support our efforts to grow in this exciting and dynamic region.
“The expanded labs will allow us to better serve our Egyptian customers and strengthen our market presence in Africa and the Middle East.”
IFF employs around 7,400 people around the world and sells its products in 160 countries.
