AAK uses SupplySide Global to showcase range of plant-based fats and oils

AAK is showcasing its versatile portfolio of functional fat and oil solutions for every stage of life at SupplySide Global (SSG) Exposition in Las Vegas, Oct. 29–30, 2025. Visitors to booth #3151 can learn more about what’s next in better nutrition and discover how AAK’s diverse portfolio of fats and oils helps create better-tasting, healthier and more sustainable foods, beverages and nutritional products.
“The AAK team is excited to meet with SupplySide Global attendees and share how our solutions enhance products and keep consumers coming back for more,” said Joe Campbell, Vice President Go-to-Market, AAK North America. “At SupplySide Global, we’ll highlight how our innovative fat and oil solutions help manufacturers develop new and improved plant-based foods, beverages and nutritional products that meet today’s dynamic market demands.
“AAK can help manufacturers achieve great taste, texture and mouthfeel while offering products that can be labeled as 100% plant-based, organic, non-GMO and more. We’re also especially excited to introduce a preview of AkoVita OptiSyn™, our new patent-pending ratio of omega-3 DHA and phosphatidyl choline that maximizes the incorporation of DHA into cell membranes where it is needed to be biologically active, based on findings in a preclinical trial.”
Attendees who visit AAK booth #3151 can sample the latest deliciously innovative plant-based concept that showcases the integral role that the right fats and oils play in creating products consumers love:
• Plant-Based Frozen Dessert – Enjoy a creamy, plant-based frozen dessert made with a blend of coconut oil and shea olein from AAK. Featuring AkoPlanet™ PBI 188-44, this consumer-pleasing, better-for-you dessert is lower in saturated fat than coconut oil, while enhancing smoothness and creaminess. The unique blend creates a more uniform texture than standard coconut oil and more viscosity in the frozen dessert base, delivering a rich, satisfying mouthfeel.
“Plant-based and health-focused products are rising in demand throughout the world,” added Campbell. “With more than 150 years of expertise and state-of-the-art innovation centers throughout North America, we are committed to pushing the boundaries of innovation and helping brands develop high-quality, plant-based products with excellent taste and texture. At AAK, our tailored fat and oil solutions combine sustainability with performance. We partner with customers to co-develop fats and oils that perform effectively, are sustainably sourced and meet the evolving needs of today’s consumer.”
AAK provides versatile and sustainable fat and oil solutions that meet the highest industry standards. From label claims such as non-GMO and plant-based to perfecting sensory qualities like taste and texture, AAK’s solutions are created to address a wide range of product and formulation challenges, enabling brands to bring superior innovations to market.
