The DE SANGOSSE group announced it acquired Fine Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries Fine Agrochemicals Limited and Fine Americas Inc.

Fine specializes in the development and marketing of plant growth regulators primarily in the fruit and ornamental markets.

“This acquisition strengthens our leading position in specialty markets at the world level,” Nicolas Fillon, CEO of the DE SANGOSSE group said in a statement. “Fine, with its 150 registrations and its presence in more than 40 countries will allow us to accelerate the international development of the groups’s business.”

Fine believes it will benefit from the DE SANGOSSE group’s additional resources to increase the speed of new product development, support its brands and strengthen its partnerships, says Fine Managing Director Julian Ward.

“We do indeed share the same philosophy, the selective approach to the markets and the integration of the product development chain including research, formulation, registration and marketing,” Ward says.
