Dutch speciality chemicals and ingredients distributor IMCD is celebrating the 30th anniversary since its foundation in 1995.
Based in Rotterdam, IMCD has grown from a humble base in the Benelux and France into a global leader with more than 5,200 employees across 60+ countries, supported by 110 offices, 80 laboratories and 150 warehouses worldwide.
Over three decades, IMCD has transformed distribution into true partnership, co-creating innovative and sustainable solutions with suppliers and customers around the globe.
Major milestones have included surpassing €1 billion in revenue in 2011, a successful listing on Euronext Amsterdam in 2014, strategic acquisitions such as MF Cachat in the US and Signet in India, and a deepened commitment to sustainability through Together for Sustainability and the Science Based Targets initiative.
Marcus Jordan, Chief Executive Officer of IMCD, said: “I am deeply honoured to lead IMCD into its 30th anniversary, a milestone made possible by the vision of our founder, Piet van der Slikke, supported by his trusted CFO Hans Kooijmans, and driven by an entrepreneurial mindset and a bold purpose to transform distribution into true partnerships.
“Our success has always been rooted in people, our employees around the world, our suppliers, and our customers, working together with entrepreneurial spirit, creativity and trust,” he added.
“Over three decades we have grown from a Rotterdam base into a global leader, while staying true to the partnerships that brought us here."
