Danisco A/S
 PROFILE
Danisco makes that pinch of pectin and that dash of xylitol to make it come out just right. Its food ingredients are sold to food manufacturers in over 100 countries. The company's other interests include sugar and sweeteners, as well as advanced food packaging. Danisco's line of food ingredients includes antioxidants, enzymes, fat replacers, and flavors, which it sells to food manufacturers in the bakery goods, dairy products, meats, beverages, confectioneries, and snacks food markets. Having acquired Cultor Foods in 1999, Danisco now also holds a 48% stake in Genencor International, and plans to develop and sell bio-ingredients with the company.
