Raisio plc
Raisio plc makes grain-based foods for people and feed for animals. It also produces malt for beverage makers and starch-based ingredients for food companies. While strong in Finland, the company's food business has grown in Russia and Poland, where it sells pasta and porridges. In 2007 Raisio sold its food diagnostics business, which accounted for only 2% of sales, to Ciba Specialty Chemicals (Ciba bought Raisio's chemical business in 2004.) Focusing on its grain-based products, in 2009 Raisio sold its margarine business to Bunge for E80 million ($109 million). In keeping with this focus, Raisio bought UK snack and candy maker Glisten in 2010.
