Danisco to Boost Cultures Production in China

Danisco (Copenhagen) has announced that it will expand production of LCI (live culture inoculant) cultures for the Chinese dairy and dietary supplement markets. The company says it has purchased a food processing plant near Beijing to accommodate Chinese customers. That plant should be ready by next fall.

“China is already a significant market for our YO-MIX fresh dairy cultures,” said Danisco BioActives president Fabienne Saadane-Oaks. “In addition, this new facility also will support our HOWARU probiotics production for dietary supplements, food, and beverages.”
