Our Story and Vision
Food Technology Services (FTS) a netwerk organisation of independent specialists, based in the Food Valley region of Wageningen, Netherlands, serves the global food industry and its suppliers including equipment manufacturers. Our mission is to enhance your company's profitability and product quality through practical innovation, leveraging the latest in scientific knowledge and technical advancements.
Our expertise spans New Product Development (NPD), Food Safety (Risk analyses, HACCP), classical food engineering (design of production lines and factories), and novel preservation technologies such as HPP and MAP. We can assist in product reformulations and plant protein structuring of Vega(n) foods. International business development including CAPEX and OPEX are also part of our service portfolio,
Understanding that R&D may not be the primary focus for many businesses, we aim to streamline this process to fuel your company's growth efficiently. FTS is dedicated to delivering practical solutions and implementations and to ensure true value-creation. Our work focuses on designing retail food products, design and production of machinery, and production lines that meet the demands of emerging markets.
We envision a future driven by the demand for new experiences and sustainability, aligning with the global trend towards healthier lifestyles and food choices. This vision includes developing all-natural, non-GMO products with less additives or preservatives, utilizing novel technologies to meet these emerging needs.
As we navigate the sixth Kondratieff wave, our challenge is to identify and invest in the new R&D areas and human capital essential to fulfilling our future ambitions and sustaining innovation in the food industry.
