Ingredion

Ingredion is a global ingredients solutions company that specializes in converting agricultural raw materials into various ingredient products. The company develops and manufactures a broad portfolio of starches, non-GMO sweeteners, stevia, and plant-based proteins. Utilizing diverse natural sources such as corn, tapioca, potatoes, and fruits, Ingredion creates essential components for a wide range of industries, continuously expanding its capabilities to offer innovative ingredient solutions.

The company's origins trace back to 1906 with the formation of Corn Products Refining Co., established through the merger of prominent US corn refining businesses. This consolidation aimed to create a robust entity for ingredient supply, with E.T. Bedford serving as the inaugural chairman. Over the decades, the company evolved through several iterations, including CPC International and Corn Products International, before officially rebranding as Ingredion in 2012 to reflect its broader ingredient portfolio and global presence.

Ingredion serves a vast customer base spanning the food, beverage, brewing, and pharmaceutical industries, as well as various other industrial sectors across more than 120 countries. The company's long-term vision centers on delivering innovative, science-based ingredient solutions that enable its customers to create products that meet evolving consumer preferences and industry demands for improved texture, taste, and nutrition.
