We start the year’s first magazine edition with an outlook report on food, beverage and health ingredients. This report contains the insights of executives from Kalsec®, FMC Health and Nutrition, DuPont Nutrition & Health, Monteloeder, Tate & Lyle, and GNT. Plus, we’ve added our interviews with Huntsman, a producer of titanium dioxide, and IMCD, a leading distributor of ingredients and speciality chemicals. It’s good to note the continued optimism companies share when speaking about the Asian market, particularly the ASEAN region, which as you know is also on its fi rst year as AEC.Also on ingredients, read our latest on plant-based proteins.In boardroom connection, we’re happy to bring to you an exclusive with Mai Hoai Anh, the Executive Director of Sales at Vinamilk, Vietnam’s largest dairy producer, on the company’s venture in Cambodia.
