Since our May report on the current outbreak of Avian Influenza (AI)—the worst in U.S. history—the crisis has escalated. In our latest update, we include more information on this topic and details about how Batory is addressing it.

Once the dominion primarily of sports nutrition, “high protein” is an opportunity no formulator can afford to ignore—whether you’re a functional food purveyor or food and beverage marketer.

In 2015 and beyond, the formulators who stand to win understand that consumers’ appetite for protein doesn’t stop at the supplement store. Look no further than pharmacy shelves, which bow under the weight of protein shakes and bars. In the grocery store, protein claims have moved beyond traditional realms like dairy. The aisles now teem with cereals, baked goods and beverages (even pet foods and dressings) making “high protein” claims. That’s to say nothing of the glossy magazines putting protein in their headlines.

What’s driving the protein passion? Credit a surge in health and wellness awareness, as well as ever more sophisticated exercise and nutrition science. The extreme protein diet craze of the early 2000s has given way to a better-informed consumer base. Fortunately, people no longer dine on bacon and cheese all day. But they have developed what you might call a “protein IQ,” replacing carbohydrates with protein-based energy sources for the latter’s wellness edge. 

All of this dovetails with the phenomenal success of the sports nutrition market, which has outperformed all other consumer health categories globally, according to Euromonitor. Within sports nutrition, protein is by far the fastest growing market. To capture their fair share of this success, mainstream brands have taken up the protein mantle. And why wouldn’t they?

America is in the grips of an avian influenza (AI) epidemic—the worst in U.S. history. The outbreak has forced poultry farmers to euthanize millions of turkeys and chickens, with new cases emerging daily. Iowa, Minnesota and Wisconsin have declared states of emergency, while teams of scientists scramble to better understand precisely how this “H5” virus is spreading.

At Batory, we are working tirelessly to mitigate the impact of the epidemic, which has hit suppliers across the U.S., including our own egg supplier. We’re confi dent that our national scale, service excellence and far-ranging portfolio offer several advantages—not least the expertise to problem solve with customers.

Partnership heralds a revolution for formulators using the new Qorus™ Sweetener System

October 1, 2014 (Des Plaines, IL and Dallas, TX) — Batory Foods, a leading distributor of high-quality ingredients for U.S. food manufacturers, has reached an agreement with Celanese Corporation, a global technology and specialty materials company, as a select distributor of the new Qorus™ sweetener system. Developed by Celanese, Qorus™ balances flavor and sweetness while masking off notes. This empowers manufacturers to develop low- and no-calorie foods and beverages that taste as authentic as their full-calorie counterparts.

“This is not just another high-intensity sweetener,” said Tom Tang, product manager, Batory Foods. “It’s a complete sweetener solution that propels the development of no- and low-calorie products into the future. Qorus™ changes the game for formulators, who can now innovate in this space with fewer limitations.”

Typically, product developers sacrifice taste for caloric reduction. With Qorus™, however, Batory customers can deliver the delight of uncompromising sweetness—without the calories of sugar. Qorus™ significantly reduces the bitter aftertaste of traditional no- or low-calorie sweeteners and increases sweetness perception. The optimizer inside the Qorus™ sweetener system does not add its own taste.

Qorus™ functions in a variety of processing conditions and is designed for no- and low-calorie carbonated and non-carbonated beverages, flavored waters, energy and juice-based drinks, dairy products, cocktails and many more applications. Batory offers Qorus™ in two platforms: Dolce 1100 (30% to 70% sugar reduction) and Dolce 2100 (50% to 100% sugar reduction).

While formulators enjoy the innovation potential of Qorus™, operations professionals appreciate the savings. Qorus™ reduces the need for proprietary flavors or masking agents, introducing time and freight cost efficiencies. With fewer truckloads required, Batory customers experience reduced man-hours, dock hours, handling and storage.

The distribution partnership with Celanese also allows manufacturers to leverage Batory’s strength as a single-source ingredients provider. Customers that may have otherwise purchased flavorings or masking agents from different vendors can turn to Batory for a complete sweetener solution.

“We know that Batory is a good fit with Celanese,” says Amy F. Gilliland, technical manager, Americas, of the Celanese food ingredients business. “They have a long history of meeting customers’ sweetener needs and they are well equipped to represent a specialty ingredient like Qorus™.”
