On September 8, 2025, ingredient manufacturer Natara Global announced plans for an all-cash acquisition of Treatt plc, a leading manufacturer and supplier of natural extracts and ingredients.
Natara was acquired by European private equity firm Exponent in 2023, which has accelerated Natara’s growth through investment in manufacturing and service capabilities and a high-performing leadership team. Company officials hope that this acquisition will help both companies broaden their geographic reaches and give customers a larger portfolio of high-quality ingredients.
“With the support of Exponent, Natara has been investing for growth since 2023,” said Natara Global’s chief executive officer Yoram Knoop. “By combining with Treatt, we will be strongly positioned to continue our growth journey. The combination of Natara and Treatt will bring together two complementary businesses, expanding our portfolio, accelerating our capability in innovation and delivering an enhanced customer proposition globally. The combination will also create more opportunities for each company’s teams, with greater capacity for collaboration and investment in talent.”
Full terms of the acquisition were not disclosed in the press release.
