We are pleased to announce Puratos’ intention to acquire the Plange Bakery Ingredient Business.

This will allow Puratos to increase its presence and market penetration in Germany. The agreement is pending approval of the German competition authorities.

“The acquisition of this long established business in Germany will strengthen our business development teams in Europe’s largest baked goods market ,  as well as enrich our product portfolio.”

This acquisition sees the coming together of two businesses that share common values including passion for innovation in bakery, a commitment to quality and customer-first approach.

“The merger of the business development teams of Plange Bakery Ingredients into the Puratos Germany team should allow us to service and support better the customers both companies are supplying”, says Holger Möller, General Manager of Puratos Germany. “Adding the great and famous products of Plange Bakery Ingredients  to  Puratos’ portfolio  should also help us develop our customers’ businesses better.”
