Payan Bertrand (Grasse, France) has reported 2014 sales of more than 20 million euros, driven by a 12% rise in fragrance compound sales and consolidation of its natural ingredient sales.
To support ongoing growth, the company has acquired a Cotexa Colibri robot, which is part of its new mixing production unit at La Sarée at Bar-sur-Loup. That unit will open within three years, supporting fragrance and flavor compound production, a new logistics unit, QC and maintenance.
Meanwhile, the company has been designated as an EPV – Business Living Heritage by the country's Minister of the Economy, Emmanuel Macron, and the State Secretary in charge of Trade and Craft, Consumption and Sustainable Economy, Carole Delga.
