Givaudan expands its production capacity for encapsulation technologies in Pedro Escobedo, Mexico

As part of its 2025 strategy ‘Committed to Growth, with Purpose’ to increase its competitive advantage in Latin America, Givaudan the global leader in fragrance and beauty is pleased to announce the inauguration of its newly expanded production facility at the Pedro Escobedo site.  The investment in the new extension underscores Givaudan’s commitment to enhancing its encapsulation technologies and meeting the growing demands of its customers in the Latin American market, and also worldwide.

“This expansion is a pivotal step in our fragrance and beauty strategy. It has successfully doubled our production capacity, which now represents 40% of Givaudan's global capacity in this sector. This strategic growth not only reflects our engagement to meet the increasing demands of our customers but also positions us as a leader in this market.”

Maurizio Volpi, President Fragrance & Beauty 

  

”This continues our investment in delivery systems capacity in Pedro Escobedo, aligned with meeting our global growth expectations. Following the investments in Singapore in 2022, this next step in Mexico is another milestone in our development of encapsulation technologies. Furthermore, Pedro Escobedo’s facility and equipment have been designed to reinforce our dedication to operational excellence and ensure that we maintain the highest quality and Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) standards, in our production processes.”
