As the world’s leading supplier of vitamins, carotenoids, other biochemicals
and fine chemicals and premixes, DSM Nutritional Products is uniquely
positioned to capitalize on the positive dynamics in its markets. The company
addresses the animal and human nutrition and health industries as well as
personal care sectors. With producers and consumers putting more emphasis on
health, wellness and safety, there are many opportunities to capture.
With 10 large production sites in Europe, the United States and China, over 45
premix plants across the globe, 5 R&D centers in Europe and China and 40 sales
offices in all main regions of the world, DSM Nutritional Products is never
far away from its customers.
Strategy
In 2007 a new profit improvement plan, ‘Aspire to
Win’, was announced. Through a mix of cost savings and increased profits from
higher revenues through innovation and differentiation, this plan is expected
to deliver an annual minimum of €100 million in improved profitability by
2010. For 2008, the first full year of the program, it is expected that the
benefits will at least offset the negative impact of the phasing out of the
contracts related to the acquisition of Roche Vitamins.
