Inside BENEO’s new pulse plant: pioneering sustainable protein from faba beans
The goal is to optimise supply to customers in India, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh through regional proximity and shorter delivery times
After a construction period of less than two years, the MULTIVAC Group has officially opened its new production site in India. Thanks to an investment volume of around nine million euros, the ultra-modern building complex for Sales and Production features a floor space of 10,000 square metres and will go into operation at the beginning of 2024. Initially, around 60 people will be employed at the site. The goal is to optimise supply to customers in India, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh through regional proximity and shorter delivery times. The industrial area of Ghiloth is 120 kilometres south-west of Delhi. “The South Asian region has become increasingly important for us in recent years,” said Christian Traumann, CEO of the MULTIVAC Group, who opened the plant together with the Group Presidents Dr Christian Lau (COO) and Dr Tobias Richter (CSO). “Us opening a modern plant in one of the largest and fastest growing economies in the world today is therefore a further milestone in the internationalisation of MULTIVAC.” The company now has 13 other production sites in Germany, Austria, Spain, Brazil, Bulgaria, China, Japan and the USA, as well as more than 80 sales and service companies worldwide.
