Flavor & Fragrance Specialties Inc. (FFS) has merged with Lucta, S.A., which makes flavors for animal feed additives, and creates flavors for brands in the beverage, confection, and savory markets, as well as fragrances for air care and household products.
The companies said the merger expands upon both companies' global footprint; customers will now have an opportunity to utilize manufacturing centers serving Asia Pacific, Europe, South and Latin America as well as North America.
In 2009, Lucta USA (Northbrook, Illinois), a unit of Lucta S.A., consolidated its manufacturing operations as part of a restructuring of its business model.
