The Groan Group has entered a strategic partnership with Aminola, a supplier of sustainable plant-based ingredients, through a financial investment aimed at expanding their combined reach in the food, pet food and aquafeed markets.
“We believe in Aminola’s mission and see a natural alignment with our own core values,” said Anton de Groot, owner and managing director of Groan. “Together, we can accelerate, expand, and strengthen sustainable supply chains – with a particular focus on the growth markets of food and pet food.”
Aminola will gain access to Groan’s global trading network and market insights, while Groan will benefit from Aminola’s research and development expertise and existing ecosystem of plant-based ingredients.
“This collaboration gives our mission a real boost,” said Dick van Beek, CEO of Aminola. "Our partnership is centered on knowledge-sharing, joint investment and unlocking new sources."
As part of the agreement, Aminola will expand its pet food and aquafeed portfolio with base ingredients from Groan’s range, positioning itself as a more comprehensive supplier in those sectors.
