Döhler Group has expanded its North American operations with the establishment of Döhler Canada, a new legal entity based in Toronto, Ontario.
The move is designed to bring Döhler closer to its Canadian customer base, enabling faster response times, greater local market expertise and closer collaboration on product development projects while leveraging the company's global innovation and production network.
Canadian manufacturers will gain direct access to Döhler's portfolio of natural ingredients, ingredient systems and integrated solutions, including ingredients for taste, colour, health and nutrition, fruit and vegetable applications, plant-based products and customised ingredient systems for food and beverage formulations.
In addition to its ingredient offering, Döhler will provide end-to-end product development support, covering market and consumer insights, concept creation, formulation, sensory evaluation, application support, scale-up and supply chain services. The company said this integrated approach is intended to help customers accelerate innovation, streamline product development and bring new products to market more efficiently.
Paul Graham, president of the Americas at Döhler, said: "Establishing Döhler Canada reflects our strategy of combining strong regional capabilities with the expertise and resources of our global network."
Graham continued: "Our customers need partners who understand their markets, respond quickly and help them translate changing consumer expectations into successful products. With a dedicated Canadian organisation, we can work even more closely with customers and support them from the first idea through to commercial implementation."
The launch of Döhler Canada forms part of the company's broader investment strategy across North America and is expected to strengthen its ability to support Canadian food and beverage manufacturers with local expertise backed by its global capabilities.
