DANISCO USA INC

International Flavors & Fragrances (IFF) has a significant presence in Malaysia, incorporating the former Danisco businesses. IFF is a global leader in the food, beverage, health, and biosciences industries, providing a wide array of ingredients, enzymes, cultures, flavors, and fragrances. In Malaysia, IFF serves as a strategic regional hub, offering innovative solutions for food and beverage, dietary supplements, and personal care products to customers across Southeast Asia and beyond. Their operations in the country are supported by advanced technology and expertise, ensuring the delivery of high-quality products and technical services.

Regarding whether it is a factory or a trading company, IFF (including the former Danisco operations) in Malaysia functions as both. They operate manufacturing facilities (factories) that produce various food ingredients, and they also maintain commercial offices responsible for sales, distribution, and technical support for their extensive product portfolio within the Malaysian market and the broader region.
