WAGENINGEN, THE NETHERLANDS — Lallemand Bio-Ingredients (LBI), a division of Lallemand, Inc., announced a strategic partnership with Revyve, a Dutch foodtech company.
The deal makes Lallemand the exclusive distributor of Revyve in markets throughout the US, Canada and Mexico.
“Our collaboration with Revyve represents a significant step forward in advancing sustainable food production,” said Bob Villeneuve, global sales director – savory for LBI. “Revyve’s high-performance yeast ingredients are a great addition to our existing portfolio of premium solutions in various categories, from savory to bakery. Together we continue to create new possibilities for manufacturers to innovate and thrive in the dynamic North American food market.”
Revyve’s proprietary process changes baker’s yeast into food ingredients that can serve as an egg replacement or other texturizers without compromising texture, taste, nutrition or functionality. The adapted yeast-based ingredients can offer a range of textures in gluten- and egg-free applications, plant-based and vegan products, and natural food innovations.
“Lallemand’s exceptional reputation as both a supplier and commercial partner makes them the perfect partner for Revyve’s expansion into North America,” Jordania Valentim, chief commercial officer of Revyve. “By sourcing ingredients from Lallemand, produced using the principles of circular economy, we ensure the quality and sustainability of our ingredients. Lallemand’s extensive market knowledge and connections allow us to bring these innovations to key customers looking for allergen-free, vegan, and natural solutions.”
In pairing Lallemand’s expertise in yeast-based ingredient production and commercialization with Revyve’s technology, the companies can offer animal-free texturizing ingredients ideal for the growing market of health-conscious and environmentally aware consumers.
