30/06/05 Hertfordshire based Aromco, leading designer and manufacturer of flavours, have been honoured with the prestigious Queen's Award for Enterprise: International Trade 2005.
The award is in recognition of outstanding growth in international trade and marks a 77% increase in earnings over the past three years. During the period Aromco established a presence in eight new markets including China, India, Iran and Australia whilst continuing to develop business in existing markets, including Russia and Saudi Arabia.
Whether it be recognising the commercial opportunity of creating a 'true to fruit flavour' substitute of the distinctive woodapple fruit for the Sri Lankan market to developing a collection of Russian berry flavours, Aromco's success is built on understanding the multitude of tastes and nuances of flavour expectations within the global village.
Key to establishing overseas customer confidence is the Aromco brand, characterised by creativity, effectiveness and reliability. These values are based upon on industry leading knowledge and experience. Flavours are developed by an innovative technical team who have extensive knowledge and appreciation of international tastes, foods, raw materials and manufacturing and processing. Exceptional standards of quality assurance are applied throughout the business – from tight administration procedures to rigorous production control – ensuring product quality is maintained and delivery within short lead times are consistently achieved.
To gain market presence, Aromco pursues highly individual relationships with international partnerships, joint ventures and customers. These relationships feature strong knowledge and appreciation of markets at regional and country level, complemented with dedicated service. Spurred on by winning the award, Aromco will continue to pursue growth plans in existing and new markets. Currently the company is recruiting additional key personnel and enhancing manufacturing and technical facilities both in the UK and overseas.
"The award is a tribute to the supreme effort people in all aspects of our business play in delivering winning flavours", says Antony Gore, marketing manager of Aromco. "It is also a celebration of the valued relationships we share with our customers and business associates around the world."
Established in 1988, Aromco is the UK's largest independent flavour house supplying top-note flavour products to the food and beverage, pharmaceutical and animal feed industries of Europe, Eastern Europe, the Far East, Africa and Asia.
