A Message from Carlo Colesanti Chairman, President and CEO, Agilex Flavors & Fragrances™, Inc.

It is a pleasure to welcome you to the world of Agilex Flavors & Fragrances™ and to introduce you to our new company!

Agilex is a fresh and exciting company with a wide range of resources and significant capabilities that was forged from the deliberate and careful integration of six of our well established flavor and fragrance companies.

These successful companies include AromaTech, Flavor Source, International Fragrance & Technology, Key Essentials, Technology Flavors & Fragrances and Western Flavors & Fragrances.

At Agilex, we believe that our business is all about creativity, service and the value our customers perceive in the products we supply them. Consequently, we are focused on developing breakthrough niche technologies and introducing advances that result in outstanding, one-of-a-kind "winning" products.

The Agilex brand name and signature line, 'Agility. Passion. Excellence.' underscore our competitive differentiation and the value proposition we strive to deliver to our customers.

We embrace a vibrant, entrepreneurial spirit as we combine big-company resources with small-company values; and put into everyday practice the careful attention to detail that satisfies our customer's expectations, regardless of their size.

This approach is also found in our willingness to be flexible in anticipating and responding to the requirements of ever-changing markets, trends and business environments. You will recognize this in the passion and commitment of some of the best creative, technical and marketing minds in our industry – and you will see it in the excellence of the products, technologies and services we provide that help our customers achieve success.

Our aim is to be the supplier brand that will be recognized for consistently delivering the value that our customers have a right to expect.

Please browse through our website. It parallels the exciting brand-building work that is going on at Agilex, so plan to return to it frequently since we will be updating it to report on our steady, ongoing progress. But keep in mind that while you can discover the extent of our big-company resources on our website, our small-company values are best experienced when you bring your flavor and fragrance requirements to Agilex.

My team and I welcome your challenges and enthusiastically look forward to partnering and launching those market winners together!

Best,
