Willows Ingredients Announces New Chapter with IMCD Group
Willows Ingredients Announces New Chapter with IMCD Group
Almost 19 years ago on 19th of April 2007, Willows Ingredients began life at home in Gorey, Co. Wexford, founded by David and Carmelia Scrivens with a clear vision, strong values, and plenty of determination. What started as a small family venture quickly grew into something much bigger.
Between 2008 and 2010, more family members came on board as Directors, Lavina Conway, Philip Conway, and Derek Conway, helping to strengthen the foundations and drive the business forward. Together with our dedicated team and colleagues, that family spirit has shaped who we are and powered our steady growth year after year.
Today, we’re genuinely excited to share a major milestone in our journey: Willows Ingredients has been acquired by IMCD Group. This marks a new chapter and is a strong endorsement of our reputation, long-standing commitment to our customers, product quality, service, and reliability, as well as our supplier partnerships.
What hasn’t changed is our values, our people, and our commitment to our customers and partners. We’re the same team, with the same approach, now backed by even greater strength and opportunity for the future.
Thank you to everyone who has been part of our story so far. The next chapter starts now.
Paul Hanbury, Managing Director, IMCD UK & Ireland: “This acquisition represents an important step in developing our food & nutrition activities across the region. Willows Ingredients has built an impressive portfolio of nutrition ingredients, and the team brings long-standing, trusted customer relationships and valuable expertise across Ireland and the UK. By combining their strengths with IMCD’s global reach and formulation capabilities, we can create even greater opportunities for our customers and principals.”
“We are proud of the strong customer relationships our team has built in the specialised nutrition space,“ said David Scrivens, Managing Director, Willows Ingredients. “By joining IMCD, we gain access to a global platform that will enable us to support our partners even more effectively. We look forward to contributing our knowledge and working alongside our new colleagues to deliver enhanced solutions for the market.”
