Triple jubilee at KMC
A political compromise in 1933 led to the establishment of a number of potato starch factories in Denmark and to the establishment of KMC.
KMC’s Toftlund and Karup factories celebrated their 75 year anniversaries earlier this year and KMC will mark its 75 years in the starch business later in the year. The Brande factory – being the oldest in Denmark – celebrated its 90 years last year.

From its very humble beginnings in 1933 with a production of only 9.500 ton native starch till today’s world wide sales of potato based ingredients to more than 70 countries, representative offices in Russia, China, England, and Germany, and tapioca production in Vietnam – we have come a long way! But some things have not changed! We still run a company where names and faces are important and remembered, and where our customers know that we mean what we say. We are determined to keep to a personal, honest approach in everything we do. It has been a recipe for success and customer appreciation for seventy-five years – and we want to keep it that way.

We made our name in starches, and have moved on from there to a growing number of other key ingredients. It is our goal to continue our development. Our focus on carefully selected special ingredients means that we are expanding rapidly. But we are determined to make sure that the way we work and the way we think remain the same.
