LILLE, France (May 16, 2011) - Tate & Lyle will attend the PLMA World of Private Label tradeshow, taking place on 24^th - 25^th May at the RAI Amsterdam, Netherlands.

At this year’s show, Tate & Lyle will present a number of prototypes at their booth, including innovative new juice drinks and snacks. These products demonstrate the kind of customized solutions Tate & Lyle is able to provide food manufacturers with, through its ingredients - cost optimisation, the creation of new tastes and textures, or improved nutritious food products with reduced fat or sugar and energy. Tate & Lyle also provides product development expertise to support the private label industry in the launch of new products and help them reduce their time to market.

Frederick Barrow, Business Development Director, Tate & Lyle Speciality Food Ingredients, said: “We welcome the opportunity to meet European retailers and manufacturers to develop a better understanding of their specific needs and thus to be able to propose innovative solutions to them to drive their product development initiatives.

The food industry is constantly evolving, and as consumer trends change fast, retailers are under increasing pressure to develop their offering. The PLMA World of Private Label tradeshow provides a perfect forum for Tate & Lyle to demonstrate the wide technical, marketing and nutritional expertise that we can offer.”

Frederick will be available to meet retailers and manufacturers at Tate & Lyle’s stand, 8503 Amstelhal, throughout the show.
