The Malteurop Group operates 27 industrial sites in 13 countries. The motivation behind this international outlook is the desire to be:
During its sustained growth, which has been regular and above the market growth rates, Malteurop has continually invested in renewing its production facilities, whose average per-unit production capacity is 90,000 metric tons of malt.
Over 30% of the total industrial base is less than 10 years old. The engineering and construction of more than a third of the Group’s plants were handled internally by Malteurop’s specific teams.
All of our manufacturing facilities meet criteria of flexibility of orientation of the production facility and of the production process. This allows the plants to adapt to suit differences in raw materials, local conditions, and the needs and demands of brewers.
The Malteurop Group is the world’s leading malt producer, with a current annual production capacity of more than 2,200,000 tons. The Group is present in 14 countries in Europe, North America, Oceania and Asia, with 27 industrial sites and 1,183 employees.
The Group Leadership Team brings together the members of the Executive Committee and the directors of the local units.
The Group’s rapid and profitable growth and its continuous efforts to improve performance in all areas are our two vectors of value creation.
The story begins in the 1960s in France with the first malting plant, opened in Reims by an agricultural cooperative. It continues with the acquisition and creation of several malting plants, then the birth of Malteurop as a company in 1984…
Malteurop conducts a research and development policy aimed at introducing innovations into the barley-malt-beer value chain. It concerns primarily control over raw materials – barley and malt – and improving industrial processes at malting plants.
Malteurop is first and foremost an industrial group engaged in the primary processing of barley into malt.
At its base our profession consists in ensuring the availability of malts in the right place, at the right time, at the right price, in the desired quality and quantities, at the point of secondary processing by our brewer customers.
