KMC delivers an 8 percent revenue increase in 2024/25, reaching DKK 3.86 billion with EBIT of DKK 392 million. The growth reflects rising global interest in high-functionality potato-based ingredients that help manufacturers improve texture, stability and sustainability across food categories. KMC’s solutions enabled the replacement of nearly 37,000 tonnes of animal-based ingredients during the year.
Clear market momentum
CEO Jesper Burgaard notes that performance is closely tied to customer collaboration and focused innovation:
“The past year shows what we can achieve when stable raw materials, strong teamwork and innovative solutions come together. We’re seeing clear momentum in the market – and our investments reflect our confidence in KMC’s long-term growth.”
To meet future demand, KMC has launched two major projects totalling DKK 800 million: expanding the KMC Granules factory and upgrading KMC Derivaten aimed at high-value ingredients. These investments strengthen delivery reliability and ensure capacity in fast-growing segments such as plant-based dairy, confectionery and dressings.
Innovation strengthens long-term supply
Promising results from KMC’s NGT field trials in Arnborg show potato plants with natural resistance traits, highlighting the potential for reduced pesticide use and more resilient cultivation. Combined with the company’s first double materiality assessment, sustainability remains a core part of KMC’s market strategy.
Demand for potato-based ingredients is expected to stay high in 2025/26, with earnings forecast at six to ten percent of revenue. This provides a strong platform for continued growth and value creation for customers worldwide.
