Hamlet Protein appoints new CFO Poul Jørgensen ADM opens new extrusion facility in Serbia ADM, a global leader in human and animal nutrition, announced the opening of a new extrusion facility in Serbia. This comes less than a year after ADM’s acquisition of European provider of nonGMO soy ingredients, SojaProtein. With the combined efforts of ADM and SojaProtein, the facility will further expand ADM’s footprint in Europe, extending its production of non-GMO textured soy to include vital origination and extrusion capabilities. The facility is set up to produce non-GMO soy proteins, which is a highly sought-after assertion not only in Europe, but around the world. Globally, 75% of consumers look for non-GMO claims on protein content. Unique to the European region, ADM will now offer both origination and extrusion capabilities, extending the high-quality, non-GMO solutions currently available from ADM’s acquisition of SojaProtein. This is made possible due to 90% of the soy sourced grown within 100 kilometers of the facility, enabling a local supply chain. These expanded capabilities provide high-quality, non-GMO soy protein solutions for authentic, plant-based savory offerings, meeting and anticipating European consumers’ demands. This builds upon ADM’s robust extrusion and texturized capacities in North America, in addition to the company’s recently announced substantial investment of $300 million to expand its Decatur, Illinois, alternative protein production, as well as the planned opening of a new Protein Innovation Center.
