Arla Foods Ingredients has announced the acquisition of Sensient Flavors, a neighbouring site at its Felinfach location.

The development of the Welsh site makes up part of the business’s future plans for investment projects.

This will ensure stronger operations and capacity for future growth in the area, AFI said.

The investment also ensures business continuity, creating full control of critical infrastructure and utilities.

“Expanding our footprint alongside our existing facility will allow us to expand our processing capability and build a more robust operation for the future,” said Anne-Sophie Hoff, site director at AFI Felinfach. “This new milestone reflects the hard work of our team and the strong partnerships we’ve built locally, and we’re excited about the positive impact this expansion will have.”

She added: “We know how important sites like this are in the local community and this investment underscores our commitment to the area.”
