Azelis is expanding its Food & Nutrition offering in Türkiye through a distribution agreement with AKV for functional potato starch solutions. The company published the announcement on November 3, 2026, while the agreement took effect on September 1, according to MarketScreener.
The arrangement gives Azelis access to AKV's potato starch portfolio for meat and savoury applications. The products are intended for food manufacturers seeking functional ingredient solutions, while Azelis will contribute local market knowledge, technical expertise and customer relationships in the Turkish market.
Portfolio expansion supports local growth
AKV is owned by approximately 200 Danish farmers and produces potato-based ingredients at its facility in northern Denmark. Its portfolio includes starches used in meat applications as well as solutions designed around specific formulation and processing requirements.
For Azelis, the agreement adds a complementary product line to its existing Food & Nutrition range. The company said the broader selection could help it serve current customers more extensively and develop new business with food producers in Türkiye.
AKV said the partnership combines its product and application expertise with Azelis' local relationships. Francois Masson, AKV's Regional Sales Director for Southern Europe, said the companies aim to help food manufacturers develop solutions suited to their formulation needs, particularly in meat and savoury products.
Burcu Gezegen Ozdemir, Azelis' Market Segment Director for Food & Nutrition and Managing Director for Türkiye, described the AKV portfolio as complementary to the company's existing offering. She said the combination of product quality, innovation capabilities and local market knowledge should broaden the starch-based solutions available to customers.
Execution remains central for investors
The agreement is a commercial portfolio expansion rather than a change to Azelis' financial outlook. Its investment relevance lies in the potential to deepen the company's position with food manufacturers and create additional opportunities for its principals in a market where local technical support is important.
