Fonterra has today announced a new corporate ventures arm to incubate, scale and invest in ventures in the area of nutrition science.

Fonterra and Royal DSM, a global purpose-led science-based leader in health and nutrition, are establishing a new start-up company to accelerate the development and commercialisation of fermentation-derived proteins with dairy-like properties.

A study published in the British Medical Journal has shown an increased intake of calcium- and protein- rich dairy foods, including milk, yoghurt and cheese, can reduce the risk of falls and fractures in aged care residents.

Fonterra is taking a new approach to how it provides nutrition to communities, to better reach those most in need across New Zealand.

Today Mars has signed an agreement to purchase a majority shareholding in German targeted nutrition business, foodspring and, as part of this transaction, Fonterra has sold its interest in foodspring’s parent Goodminton A.G, and will realise a gain on sale of $64 million.

Fonterra has taken a stake in Motif Ingredients, a US-based food ingredients company that develops and commercialises bio-engineered animal and food ingredients.

Fonterra is pleased to share its second annual Sustainability Report covering how the Co-operative is progressing towards its environmental, social and economic goals.
