Innovad Group is investing in new infrastructure, workplace wellbeing, and packaging capacity to support its growing international customer base.
Innovad Group, a global producer of feed additives and animal health solutions active in over 75 countries, officially opened its new offices in Essen, Belgium last Friday. The opening coincides with the commissioning of a second packaging line at the same site. A combination that signals a clear strategic intent: Innovad Group is investing in the foundations it needs to scale.
With the official opening of its new offices in Essen (Belgium) and a second packaging line coming online in June, Innovad Group is building the infrastructure to match its global ambitions; without losing sight of the people who make it possible.
May and June mark a significant operational milestone for Innovad Group with the introduction of new packaging lines at the Essen production site. The expansion increases the company’s packaging capacity significantly, directly supporting Innovad Group’s ability to serve its growing customer base across more than 75 countries.
The new office building, officially opened last Friday, was designed to support the kind of organization Innovad Group is: collaborative, agile, and people-first. The building replaces the company’s previous premises and consolidates teams in a modern environment designed around productivity, wellbeing, and long-term use.
“This is an investment in both our capacity and our people. The new packaging line helps us serve our customers better, and our new offices are built around wellbeing and collaboration. Growth and the people who drive it go hand in hand.”
