Univar Solutions Introduces ‘Foodology,’ Reinforces Commitment to Global Food Ingredients Industry
Univar Solutions has announced the launch of Foodology by Univar Solutions, a specialised team dedicated to the “distribution and technical innovation needs of the food and nutrition ingredient industries”.
According to the company, “Foodology embodies Univar Solutions’ continued commitment to helping shape the ‘future of food’ by providing global brands access to the necessary ingredients, formulations, testing resources, regulatory expertise and world-class supply chain required to feed a growing world in a sustainable fashion,” said Nick Powell, president, ingredients & specialties and president, Europe, Middle East and Africa and Asia Pacific, at Univar Solutions.
“Foodology also sets Univar Solutions apart as a full-line food ingredient distributor, product innovator, safe supplier, and expert partner.”
Under the Foodology by Univar Solutions umbrella, the company will build out its expertise across all aspects of food and nutrition ingredient sales, marketing and distribution by using its global network of food scientists, test kitchens and portfolio of diverse and sustainable ingredients to bring together the latest in technical, trend and application development.
Univar believes this approach will make Foodology a valuable partner to brands and suppliers of all sizes looking to develop products with cleaner labels, respond to market or regulatory trends, test free-from and other label claims, as well as bring new products to market faster.
“Foodology combines our industry-leading distribution resources, our global network of food scientists, and ingredient specialists across our ecosystem of global solution centres, including the food-focused development space inside The Hatchery in Chicago, with an even stronger bench of industry experts,” added Kevin Hack, global vice president of food ingredients at Univar Solutions.
“These capabilities unite our world-class distribution footprint and deep food industry technical knowledge to design and deliver innovative solutions to every corner of the world, making us the differentiated choice to those with ingredient needs.”
The Foodology by Univar Solutions team will exhibit at the Institute of Food Technologists (IFT) Expo in Chicago, July 10-13. The company will also celebrate its launch during a series of events at the official grand opening of its test kitchen in The Hatchery Chicago during this same time.
