Specialty food ingredients company Campus has partnered with White Bridge Investments to ramp up internationalization and commercial network expansion.
Both the companies have signed an agreement to this effect.
White Bridge, the new shareholder in Campus, will allow the food ingredients firm to accelerate its growth, which was above 30% in the first quarter of 2015.
With the help of new shareholder, Campus will advance its growth in international markets and enhance the organizational and commercial structure.
White Bridge will also back the development of new products.
Campus founder and chairman Giampaolo Cagnin said: "Bringing in an external investor after so many years of successful self-funded growth is an important milestone for Campus. We are conscious of the tremendous opportunities available to the company in the coming years and we believe that White Bridge represents the best partner to support our international expansion, while retaining our culture based on products innovation.
"The international network and experience of White Bridge will bring new opportunities to Campus and we all look forward to a strong long-term relationship, strengthened by my recent investment into White Bridge share capital."
Campus currently operate in-house R&D laboratories and pilot plants to test both new ingredients and their meat applications.
