      Unlock your potential with ADM.
      ADM is a leader in global nutrition who unlocks the power of nature to envision, create and combine ingredients and flavors for food and beverages, supplements, animal feed, and more.
      We believe food is fundamental, and that we, as a global leader in nutrition, can make a lasting impact on the world. We offer the opportunity to contribute to something greater than yourself.
      ADM’s Nutrition division has focused its growth objectives around three consumer megatrends of food safety, health and wellness and the environment. Translated into Animal Nutrition (ADM AN) these can be converted into
      • Protein Production Efficiency, thereby reducing losses due to feed conversion efficiency;
      • Animal Health and Welfare, ensuring reduced early mortality and optimal breeding and genetic performance;
      • Emissions and Environmental Impact, to limit GHG emissions as well as manure and carcass disposal.
      We address those three trends through another three distinct but connected mechanisms nicknamed “Win in 3-S” as follows :
      1. Segments : Identifying the best geography/species/life-stage combinations that yield the highest opportunities for profitable growth, where ADM AN should “play”;
      2. Solutions : Defining the right set of products (including commodity and specialty feeds, premix concepts, commodity and specialty additives) for ADM AN to “win” in its chosen Segments;
      3. Services : Providing digital and physical services around control, formulation and animal performance will help accompany and elevate the Solutions sales, enhancing customer stickiness performance and profitability.
