More WIRE STORIES about this company

 PROFILE
European food retailers naturally look to Distriborg Group for specialty foods. A subsidiary of Dutch food group Koninklijke Wessanen, the company is one of Europe's top distributors of organic, gourmet, and ethnic specialty foods. It distributes to supermarkets and health foods shops throughout Europe, including about 30 company-owned La Vie Claire organic foods shops in France. Distriborg's own brands, such as Vivis, Equilibrance, Vendomine, Athlon, and Bjorg (its largest), account for more than 50% of the company's sales. Wessanen, which also owns the US natural foods distributor Tree Of Life, acquired Distriborg in mid-2000 to further expand into the health and wellness market.
