Bunge Introduces New Soy Protein Concentrates and Expands Production Capacity

Bunge has introduced a new line of soy protein concentrates aimed at addressing challenges in the plant-based protein sector. These concentrates, with a high protein content and fiber, come in both non-GMO and conventional options and will be available in powdered and textured formats for various applications. The new products are set to launch this fall and will provide a cost-effective solution for food manufacturers looking to offer clean taste and neutral color in their plant-based products.

The production of these soy protein concentrates takes place at Bunge's new facility in Morristown, Indiana, which is nearing completion and expected to be the largest food-grade plant protein production site globally. This state-of-the-art facility is part of Bunge's strategy to enhance its plant-protein offerings and improve its supply chain. Despite challenges such as delays in its $34 billion merger with Viterra due to trade tensions between the US and China, Bunge remains optimistic about the regulatory process and is focused on reducing its environmental impact and improving sustainability across its value chain.
