To better nourish and protect the planet. 🌎 Seven simple words that drives our company's mission and daily practices. At the heart of Lesaffre is innovation in fermentation; we believe the beneficial microorganisms and ingredients derived from fermentations are one of the most promising answers to nourish a growing and demanding population. This innovation has led us to become a key global player in fermentation for nearly two centuries, and we continue to push our understanding of, and technological capabilities in, this highly sustainable and healthy field. 🍃🍞🥯 #bakingindustry #lesaffrena #sustainability #planet #innovation #foodindustry #corporateresponsibility

Exciting news this morning from our Lesaffre headquarters in France! Lesaffre is reinforcing its presence in the #savory ingredients market by acquiring dsm-firmenich's yeast extracts business!
Today, Lesaffre announces the signing of a transaction with dsm-firmenich to acquire its yeast extract business. Lesaffre and dsm-firmenich have reached agreement for a multi-part collaboration in #yeast derivatives serving the #savory ingredients space. Acquiring dsm-firmenich’s yeast extract processing technologies will enable Lesaffre to better serve customers in savory and other fermentation-based applications. This #acquisition of talent and know-how and a technology partnership with dsm-firmenich will strengthen Lesaffre's trajectory in the savory ingredients market and a transformative strategic step for Biospringer by Lesaffre which will offer to its customers a wider range of products and solutions to improve taste, texture, and other desired properties in their various food applications. Lesaffre and dsm-firmenich hope to close the transaction by the end of the year. Closing remains subject to the customary regulatory approvals and works council consultations at dsm-firmenich.

We love to see young bakers proudly displaying their passions with their classmates! 🍞👨🏼🍳 Our dedicated sales rep Cynthia Bédard has been an inspiration to her son, who chose his 6th Expo Project topic on bread. He and his classmates explored the rich history of bread, discussing ingredients, breadmaking techniques, and the pivotal role of yeast. Of course, Lesaffre North America was well represented with a wonderful display of baked goods at his booth! At Lesaffre, our team is passionate about breadmaking and inspiring the next generation of bakers with a mission of working together to better nourish and protect the planet. 🍞🌍 #bread #lesaffrena #passionforbreadmaking #education
