Nutriad recently held the grand opening of a new factory in China, which will operate under the FFI Feed Flavour International brand. Building on strong experience in swine nutrition, the new plant, with an annual capacity of 10,000 metric tons, will also service ruminant and aquaculture applications.

“As the Chinese industry has developed, both government regulations as well as customer demands have changed over the years. This new factory is in full compliance with the latest environmental and safety regulations and brings together our years of experience from producing and servicing customers across the world,” said Erik Visser, chief executive officer of Nutriad.

The new 4,150 sq. m facility will increase production capacity and incorporates laboratory facilities that were built following European quality standards. Introduction of new bags will enhance product quality, and the introduction of ERP software will support supply chain improvements, the company noted.

“China is a dynamic and growing country. We are proud to be investing in this market and in our relation with local producers. We are confident that we will continue to be successful as we have shown to be able to convert global knowledge into practical local solutions helping producers to overcome feed intake challenges,” Visser said.
