From Argentina and China to Middle East

The Citromax Group has expanded its global footprint with two new locations, Citromax Ingredients Shanghai Co., Ltd., established July 30, 2019, and Citromax Singapore Private Ltd., established March 15, 2019, to provide its expanding customer base with excellent service and regional support.

We have an excellent working relationship with many local distributors and sales coverage with a focus on citrus oils, juice, (both concentrated and NFC) and other lemon by-products. The technical team works with local customers and together develop citrus based drinks meeting the taste and aroma requirements of the local market. In addition, the technical staff developpes proactive “market ready” beverage prototypes for promotion covering all categories popular in the local market. Some of the company’s technical product offerings include specialty citrus fractions, citrus top notes, the preparation of extracts and emulsions, and the development and promotion of lemon juice and lemonade beverage bases.

Lemon oil is imported from the company’s orchards in Tucuman, Argentina. In this location, Citromax grows, produces, and processes lemons from its more than 48 privately owned orchards. Lemons entering its “state-ofthe -art” processing facility are processed into industrial products, namely, juice, peel, pulp, and oil. Through Citromax’s ever expanding orchards, conventional and organic lemon oil is sold as single and folded oils to satisfy its customers’ requirements.

From Citromax we are committed to strengthening our relationship with our customers based on direct, transparent, and confident information. Considering the many economic and environmental challenges at play in today’s marketplace which include climate change, localized drought, basic food ingredient and chemical shortages, logistic and transportation challenges, living through a 2-year global pandemic, inflation, and a slowdown in GDP, the need for F&F consumer products and basic citrus ingredients has remained on a relatively stable growth trajectory. These challenges have resulted in businesses and consumers being overly “cost conscience” more than ever. As a privately owned company which grows, produces, and processes lemons from its own orchards in Argentina, Citromax is well positioned to maintain its leadership role in its ability to supply the industry and its customers with cost effective lemon and citrus oil offerings.
