The Food Sector develops, processes and markets products that include flour, breakfast foods, pasta, frozen and fresh bread, crispbread and ready-to-eat meals.
Lantmännen is an agricultural cooperative founded on the deep knowledge our farmers have aquired over generations. We make farming thrive and work together to take responsibility from field to fork.
From field to fork
From our core farming business, through the value chain, from field to fork, we are involved in every step from sowing to harvesting; to the food on our tables, feed for our livestock and climate –smart biofuels.
Locally and globally
Owned by Swedish farmers, Sweden is our base with the Baltic Sea area as our expanded domestic market. We have a strong international presence, and no matter which country and location we operate in, we always take the same responsibility.
Research for the future
We pursue research and invest in innovation for tomorrow’s agriculture, bioenergy and foods of the future. Innovations are crucial if we are to resolve the challenges of today and tomorrow, which is why Lantmännen also has its own research foundation.
Look for the sprout
You´ll find the Lantmännen sprout on our packaging. The products may be different, but everyone can feel safe that we also minimise impact on climate and people. If you find the sprout on a packet, you can be sure what’s inside is Good Food from Lantmännen.
No organization alone can tackle the challenge building the sustainable farming and food systems of the future. That is why we are happy to collaborate with a big network of corporate partners, from early startups to more mature businesses.
Business and start-up collaboration in our research and development
Lantmännen Group has a long history of openness towards new collaborations and partnerships with start-ups and more mature businesses. We are happy to welcome new possible collaborators to share collaboration proposals with us through our Collaboration Intake form (see below).
Lantmännen Group is a big organisation, stretching across many entities, businesses and markets. As it can be hard to find the right person to connect with for your collaboration proposal, we offer you a point of entry here, and will do our best to help connect you further if the proposal is deemed a good fit to Group strategy and priorities.
What are we looking for?
We are always on the lookout for collaborations and partnerships within the areas of Agriculture & Machinery, Food & Health and Bioenergy & Green Materials.
As part of the 2022 Greenhouse Programme we are also specifically interested in the space of AgTech. For this area, we are hosting a series of Demo Days where start-ups are invited to pitch directly to our leadership.
We review incoming proposals on a monthly basis. Proposals deemed of interest, will be contacted with information around what could be a next step. We regret that we cannot respond to every submission, due to the volume of unsolicited ideas we receive. Thank you for your understanding.
"Working with Lantmännen offers access to a company group with rare reach across the full value chain, from field to fork."
