CHICAGO – ADM launched a new online storefront that provides accessibility to ingredients for producers in the US food industry.

The international food and beverage manufacturer said it designed the new platform at ADMbuydirect.com for product manufacturers, as well as bakers, chefs, brewers and entrepreneurs.

Ingredients available through ADM on the site include a range of sweetening options, from bulk nutritive sweeteners, low- and no-calorie, to specialty solutions such as agave, honey and molasses.

The company also sells acidulants, such as citric acid, which help elevate flavor and improve stability and moisture control in a variety of applications.

ADMDbuydirect’s dairy and alt-dairy ingredients section includes granular potassium citrate and fine granular sodium citrate, among other options.

“We are dedicated to supporting businesses at any size, whether it be directly from ADM’s integrated asset and supply chain network, preferred distribution partners or our new e-commerce platform,” said Andrew Moore, president, sweetening and texturizing at ADM. “Both small-scale businesses and large-scale manufacturers will find added value and benefits through the platform to help overcome logistical challenges, offering convenience, reliability and flexibility through an efficient, easy-to-navigate interface with an extensive selection of ingredients and solutions to fit product formulation needs and creative goals.”
