McCormick has joined the European Flavour Association (EFFA), bringing EFFA membership to 22 companies and National Associations.

This recent addition, said EFFA, shows the dynamism of the Association, which has recently elected a new Board and is raising its profile on communication and public affairs with a series of events all over Europe.

Alexander Mohr, Executive Director of EFFA, said: “It is a pleasure to welcome McCormick and to keep growing. We already had McCormick representatives as guests in the last EFFA General Assembly and we are sure that they will be an asset in advancing the Association’s mission and goals across Europe”.

Nikolay Ermakov, Vice President R&D, McCormick Europe, Africa and the Middle-East said that the company “is proud to have joined EFFA this year as an Ordinary Member. EFFA is a recognized and influential trade association in the European Flavour industry and we believe that with our significant global expertise in the fields of flavour science and regulatory matters, we will add our expertise and insights to EFFA projects".

Other ordinary EFFA members are also market leaders in the flavour and fragrance industry: Firmenich, Givaudan, IFF, Kerry, Robertet, Sensient, Symrise, Takasago and V. MANE Fils and around 300 Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) represented through the 12 National Association members.
