Company Description

Royal Cosun is an agro-industrial group of businesses that process agricultural raw materials into food products and ingredients for the food industry, the foodservice channel and the retail market. Well-known brands are Suiker Unie, Van Gilse and Aviko.

The group's ambition is to extract the maximum value from its raw materials: this is good for the environment and makes economic sense and it meets society's demands for sustainable products and production methods.

Cosun is a cooperative with some 9,500 members/shareholders, more than 3,400 jobs in fte and annual turnover of about €1.9 billion.
