21 Aug 2012 --- Global Stevia Corp., a farm management company with a strong focus on stevia agronomics, announced it has incorporated a European subsidiary as part of its EU stevia expansion.

“Specific regions throughout the EU have the perfect climate for producing high quality and significant quantities of stevia. EU companies are rapidly expanding their stevia product portfolios,” says the Company’s CEO, Matthew Christopherson. “We plan to supply the highest quality stevia to customers in the EU from our stevia operations in the EU.”
