Azelis is entering the next week with two business developments in focus. On November 3, the company announced a distribution agreement with AKV for functional potato starch solutions in Türkiye, while Mike Finelli was named CEO of Azelis Americas with effect from November 9.

AKV deal expands Turkish offering

According to MarketScreener, the agreement took effect on September 1 and gives Azelis access to AKV's potato starch portfolio for food and nutrition applications. The products are aimed particularly at meat and savoury manufacturers.

Azelis said the portfolio is complementary to its existing food ingredients offering. The commercial arrangement can broaden the range available to existing customers and support new business, but it does not change the company's financial outlook. Execution will depend on customer adoption and the conversion of the local technical platform into sustainable growth.

Americas leadership changes Monday

Rubber World reported that Finelli will join the Executive Committee and succeed Todd Cottrell, who left Azelis at the end of October after leading the Americas business for three years. Finelli brings more than 30 years of international leadership experience in the speciality chemicals industry.

For investors, the handover places execution in the Americas alongside the group's portfolio expansion in Türkiye. Finelli said his first priority would be to work with the team to build on the region's strengths and support continued growth.

The real-time quote of Azelis stock stood at 11.72 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 11:38 CET on Saturday, November 7, 2026.

The wider European market context remains relevant for the Belgium-based group; current developments can be followed through the Euro Stoxx 50 market theme.
