The new centre will allow the company to further strengthen its product development capabilities and customer development approach in the Japanese market.

Functional ingredients and fats supplier AAK has further expanded its presence in Asia by inaugurating a new customer innovation centre in Tokyo.

 According to AAK, the new centre will allow the company to further strengthen its product development capabilities and customer development approach in the Japanese market.

The Swedish supplier entered the Japanese market in 2016 when it established a partnership with Miyoshi Oils & Fats Company, which led to the formation of the AAK Miyoshi joint venture.

The centre will be focused on applications within chocolate & confectionery fats and will also cover customer innovation projects and new product development within the dairy and special nutrition segments.
