Kerry is a company rich in heritage. It was during our modest beginnings as a dairy cooperative in Ireland that we developed our unwavering commitment to producing real and wholesome ingredients. Today, we have become a world leader in taste and nutrition for the food and beverage industry.
As we’ve evolved over the last 40 years and grown to meet ever-changing consumer demands and expectations, we have remained steadfastly committed to this early ethos.
Over the past four decades, our focus on changing lifestyles, the globalisation of food tastes and ever-evolving consumer needs has brought us to a market leading global position with operations in more than 150 sites across six continents.
Our relentless drive to innovate and develop new products to meet the changing needs of our customers has led us to create a network of Global Technology & Innovation Centres and Regional Development & Applications Centres. These centres house more than 1,000 highly skilled food scientists and nutritionists, and teams of market researchers who provide insights to drive product development. The centres provide unique leading-edge solutions at an unrivalled speed to market, helping to shape the future of food.
