Sormac range to expand with acquisition of German supplier Foodcons

Sormac, a supplier of machines, entire processing lines, and turnkey solutions for the fresh-cut fruit and vegetable industry, acquired a majority stake in the German food technology manufacturer Foodcons.

Established in 2004, Foodcons has grown as a manufacturer of its own machinery solutions as well as being the official distributor of Sormac equipment for Germany and Austria. After many years of successful collaboration, with Sormac also acting as a distributor for Foodcons, it has been jointly agreed that Foodcons GmbH & Co KG will be absorbed into Sormac GmbH in the course of this year.

With the new collaboration, Sormac customers will have access to an expanded product portfolio incorporating Foodcons' versatile machinery. "We believe that this change will lead to improved production efficiency, a symbiosis of our engineering efforts, and most importantly, an improved service for our existing and new customers," says Elena Haffmans, Director of Business Innovations at Sormac.

"We've been working closely with Sormac for 20 years now and we're thrilled that our machinery will be coming under the Sormac name. We're excited about what the future holds and look forward to seeing things come together over this year," says Karsten Schmitz, Managing Director at Foodcons.

As well as its headquarters and production site in Venlo, in recent years Sormac has opened sales and service centers in both the US and the UK. Establishing Sormac GmbH in Germany is in line with Sormac's intention to bring the company's technology to a much wider audience.

This strategic acquisition underscores Sormac's commitment to strengthening its presence in Germany and Austria while continuing to deliver solutions to the fresh-cut fruit and vegetable industry. "By integrating Foodcons' expertise with Sormac's established operations, the company is well-positioned to enhance its production capabilities, optimize service delivery, and expand its global footprint. Sormac looks forward to building on this collaboration to serve its customers with even greater innovation and efficiency in the years to come."
