Using its strong presence in the Vietnam market, Brenntag Food & Nutrition will now offer PureCircle’s stevia leaf ingredients to food and beverage companies, enabling them to use naturally-sourced, plant-based solutions to reduce sugar and artificial sweeteners in their products.
“For our dedicated Food & Nutrition team in Vietnam this partnership is an excellent opportunity to distribute high-quality stevia to our business partners.

PureCircle’s next-generation stevia sweeteners offer a clean, sugar-like taste and are made from the stevia leaf. Through its innovative R&D on stevia, PureCircle vastly increased its capacity to supply non-GMO certified, next-generation stevia leaf ingredients, like Reb M, at cost-effective prices.
“We are delighted to join forces with Brenntag Food & Nutrition to assist us in providing food and beverage companies with the highest quality stevia ingredients. Brenntag Food & Nutrition has a great reputation as an industry leader in ingredient distribution. Our new business alliance combines the strong capabilities of both partners to distribute our great-tasting stevia leaf ingredients in Vietnam. We can now offer customers high purity plant-based ingredients which appeal to consumers seeking to improve their health and wellness,” states Navneet Singh, Vice President and Head Asia Pacific Region at PureCircle.
