German plant-based food and beverage company Veganz has signed a long-term agreement with Jindilli Beverages for the production, export and distribution of its products based on its Mililk technology.
The long-term framework agreement with beverage manufacturer Jindilli will enable Veganz’s market entry for its Mililk products in Canada and the US, as well as in Australia and New Zealand. A production facility in the US based on the Mililk technology is currently being planned.
Veganz’s Mililk product line features an innovative 2D-printed plant-based milk sheet concept, designed for convenience and eco-friendliness. According to the company, its unique leaf-shaped oat sheets – which can simply be mixed with water to create a milk alternative drink – reduce packaging used by 94% and weight by 85% compared to a litre equivalent of conventional oat drink in a beverage carton.
The collaboration initially includes the production of oat and almond Mililk in Ludwigsfelde, Germany, as well as the export and distribution of the 1-litre Mililk packs in Tetra Pak format for the food retail trade and the 5-litre Mililk packs. It also covers the brand’s new Creamer Drops, a plant-based coffee creamer alternative for the foodservice industry.
The market launch will be carried out through Jindilli’s Milkadamia brand, which has an established presence in foodservice and over 13,000 retail stores in the US.
