Corn Products Awarded by Frost & Sullivan for Stevia Activity
The award recognizes Corn Products' decision to partner with Morita, a highly reputable business in the stevia industry, to offer its customers Enliten high intensity sweetener.
4 Jan 2010 --- Corn Products International, Inc., a leading global provider of agriculturally derived ingredients for diversified markets, was selected to receive Frost & Sullivan`s "Emerging Company of the Year Award" for its entry into the global stevia sweeteners market.
The award recognizes Corn Products' decision to partner with Morita Kagaku Kogyo Company Ltd. (Morita), a highly reputable business in the stevia industry, to offer its customers Enliten high intensity sweetener - a naturally based sweetener that comes from Morita`s patented stevia plant variety.
Frost and Sullivan considers the commercially available Enliten a significant contributor to the advancement of the food and beverage industry, by responding to the unmet consumer need for a low-calorie sweetener that tastes good.
The award points to Corn Products' quality standards, technical and regulatory expertise, effective marketing initiatives and continued endeavor to strengthen the supply chain, all of which reinforce its emergence as a significant long-term stevia-based sweetener solutions supplier.
These factors, along with Corn Product`s partnership with Morita, "demonstrate the company`s strategic excellence over competitors, making Corn Products the worthy recipient of the 2009 Frost & Sullivan Emerging Company of the Year Award in the global stevia sweeteners market," according to Frost & Sullivan Analyst Sneha Pasricha.
