DSM-Firmenich Earns a Wide Moat Given Leading Positions Across Food, Flavor, Fragrance, and Health
Business Strategy and Outlook
DSM-Firmenich is one of the largest consumer chemical companies in the world. Following the merger of Fermenich and DSM, a majority of the revenue is derived from segments that benefit from leading market positions across increasingly consolidated industries, such as flavor and fragrance, or F&F, and the broader food ingredients market. This has earned the company a wide moat, stemming from intangible assets and switching costs.
