Martek extends agreement with Danone

Martek Biosciences Corporation has announced that it has extended its multi-year sole-source licence and supply agreement with Danone, a leading worldwide producer of infant nutrition products.

Under the terms of the amended agreement, Martek will be Danone’s exclusive supplier of ARA for all of its infant formula and growing-up milk products until at least 31 December 2014, which is an extension of Martek’s current exclusive ARA supply position with Danone by three years.
As with the current agreement, Danone may continue to use non-microbial DHA sources.
