Nearly a century ago, Vaniköy began its journey on the shores of the Bosphorus in Istanbul with the production of halva. It later evolved into one of Turkey’s leading brands in food raw materials through its production of glucose and starch. In 1989, Vaniköy joined forces with Cargill, gaining access to extensive technical expertise and global know-how.
Today, at our Orhangazi plant in Bursa, we produce high-value sweeteners and texturisers that help set us apart in the industry. With cutting-edge application labs and partnerships with universities, we are pioneering new innovations and developing personalised solutions that allow us to grow together with our customers.

We are committed to nourishing the world in a safe, responsible, and sustainable way.

Cargill’s significant mission is to help feeding a rapidly growing global population responsibly and sustainably. Under the Vaniköy name, we use renewable and natural resources to produce high-quality raw materials, while continuously enhancing our production processes with a strong emphasis on food safety. We transform corn grown on fertile farmland into plant-based, value-added ingredients, offering sustainable solutions to food producers, with a focus on locally sourced inputs.

Since 2019, our corporate responsibility programme, 1000 Farmers Endless Prosperity, has aimed to promote regenerative and digital agricultural practices in Turkey. We are working to increase farmer welfare and crop productivity, support digital and social transformation in the field, and contribute to meeting both regional and global food demands as efficiently as possible

We strive to deliver the best ingredients and food solutions.

Our team of around 250 employees is dedicated to providing high-quality products across industrial and out-of-home consumption channels. We believe that creating value-added products and services for our customers starts with understanding the consumer. That’s why we regularly conduct consumer research through Cargill-led studies to track changing demands and help our customers stay competitive with tailored, forward-looking solutions.

Today’s consumers are increasingly mindful of their health and spending habits. As a result, foods that are enriched with protein and fibre, have reduced sugar and fat, contain more plant-based ingredients, and feature simpler labels are becoming more popular.

From baked goods to dairy, beverages to ice cream, we take a distinctive approach to helping our customers grow and deliver added-value offerings across all categories. Our broad portfolio of sweeteners and texturisers enables trend-aligned product development and supports innovative recipe creation.

Let’s grow together with shared goals.

Let’s collaborate to create the most original and up-to-date recipes—and take your business a step ahead in the food industry. Together, with shared ambitions, we can grow.
