LILLE, FRANCE — Lesaffre on Feb. 29 inaugurated a new plant in Indonesia dedicated to the production of compressed and dry yeast. Lesaffre said the new plant completes its already active baking ingredients blending plant located in Surabaya, Indonesia.
The facility is part of a new entity, PT Lesaffre Sari Nusa, which is a partnership between Lesaffre and its Indonesian partner PT Citra Bonang. The plant will allow the company to supply baking yeast in Indonesia and ASEAN countries, the company said.
