Christophe Maubert
President, Fragrance, Robertet
What was your company’s biggest business accomplishments in the last year?
We continue to invest strongly in the field of naturals, where we retain a significant competitive advantage. Finalizing the acquisition of Sirius and bringing our market share in organic ingredients above 25% on the global scale will add value across our divisions. Also, the recent acquisition of Ecom Food Industries complements our current capabilities and strengthens our competitive advantage in natural raw materials.
I would also be inclined to say that one of our biggest accomplishment is to have kept the company’s turnover stable organically during the past year.
