Symrise (DE000SYM9999) has installed a new cooking line and spray-drying tower for chicken ingredients at its Berric site in France, representing an investment of EUR 27.5 million, Food Infotech reported on October 27, 2026. Symrise stock was trading at EUR 98.94 at Lang & Schwarz at 10:33 a.m. CEST, 1.21 percent below the Xetra close of EUR 100.15 on October 26, 2026. The production investment gives the company a concrete capacity story ahead of its next results.

French capacity adds a growth angle

The Berric facilities expand Symrise's ability to produce powders, broths, fats, pieces, flavors and integrated taste solutions. The site serves customers across Europe, Africa and the Middle East while adding sourcing options for customers in Asia Pacific and Latin America, according to Food Infotech.

The investment fits a broader expansion pattern. On October 13, 2026, Symrise opened a Scent Creative Center in Singapore after investing more than EUR 80.0 million in the country over ten years, Singapore Economic Development Board reported. The center combines fragrance, oral care, cosmetic ingredients and taste expertise for Asian customers.

What does the investment mean for growth?

The immediate evidence is a larger regional supply platform rather than a new financial forecast. Symrise said the Berric project strengthens flexibility and supply resilience, while its investor-relations page identifies fragrance, flavor, cosmetic and functional ingredients as core activities. In fiscal year 2025, revenue was EUR 4,929 million and the EBITDA margin was 21.9 percent, according to Symrise. Those figures provide the financial scale against which the EUR 27.5 million facility investment can be assessed.

Three dated steps in expansion

On October 19, 2026, Symrise opened a training center in Holzminden with an investment of EUR 1.7 million, Symrise said. On October 13, 2026, the Singapore center followed more than EUR 80.0 million of country investment. On October 27, 2026, the company announced the EUR 27.5 million Berric expansion through its food and beverage operations.

Next report arrives October 28

Symrise's next scheduled reporting event is the third-quarter 2026 earnings release on October 28, 2026, followed by an earnings presentation the same day, according to MarketScreener. That date will put the new capacity announcements alongside the company's latest operating figures.

The euro quotation was 1.21 percent below the Xetra close during the morning session. The market capitalization was EUR 13.6 billion, while the 52-week range was EUR 64.70 to EUR 102.85 as of October 27, 2026.
