The company officially broke ground on a gut renovation of a the 17,000sq-ft space that will enable it to reconfigure and better use its existing property
Imbibe, an industry-leading food and beverage development company and ingredient supplier, announced plans for expanding its operations into an adjacent building in Niles, Ill. In late February, the food and beverage experts officially broke ground on the gut renovation of a the 17,000sq-ft space that will enable it to reconfigure and better use its existing property, which currently houses more than 110 Imbibe employees. This latest move comes during a period of notable growth for the company.
Since moving into its headquarters in 2014, Imbibe has added on several new capabilities to its portfolio. This includes its latest efforts to serve the frozen dessert market, the no and low alcohol and segments, and other sweet food categories that can benefit from sweetness modification, maskers, and other taste modulation tools. Based on the traction Imbibe’s ingredients-only service - Ingredients by Imbibe - has seen since the April 2021 launch, the company is also expanding its infrastructure to manage flavor and ingredient sample requests more efficiently, which will be heavily supported by the Product Development, Taste Modulation, and Flavor teams.
