WHY: This acquisition marks a significant milestone in Alvinesa’s growth strategy and strengthens its position as a key player in the upcycled natural ingredients market. As part of the integration process, Alvinesa will explore ways to leverage Genosa's expertise and technologies to enhance its existing product range.
