What Artemis International does

Artemis International is a privately held B2B supplier of premium berry, botanical, and functional ingredient raw materials, founded in 1995 and headquartered at 3711 Vanguard Drive, Fort Wayne, Indiana. The company sells extracts, powders, concentrates, and proprietary blends to functional food, functional beverage, dietary supplement, pet product, and personal care manufacturers, distributing across North America and Europe primarily through a direct sales team supported by trade show presence at SupplySide Global and SCIFTS Suppliers Night Expo. Its portfolio spans approximately 50 unique berry ingredients under the Berryceuticals line, plus an expanded botanicals catalog, custom blends, and a full-spectrum functional mushroom line sourced via partner Myzel.

The company's core technical differentiator is access to Iprona Polyphenol Technology (IPT), a chemical-solvent-free membrane ultra-filtration process used across the Craft branded line (AroniaCraft, BilCraft, CherryCraft, CurrantCraft, ElderCraft). ElderCraft has FDA-reviewed structure/function claims, Ecovitis grape seed extract (via Distillerie Bonollo) is standardized to ≥95% polyphenols and ≥95% OPCs compliant with EFSA daily dosage limits, and WholeCal (marine red algae calcium) was launched in October 2025 through a tripartite partnership with Vegan Minerals and Generichem Corporation to address the $6B U.S. calcium supplement market. Distribution is largely direct B2B but increasingly includes channel partners such as Generichem for specific brands and Butter-Lab/GLCC Flavors/Nouveautes for finished sample co-development at industry events. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; transactions are handled via direct sales inquiry through [email protected], phone (260.436.6899), and website contact forms targeting enterprise procurement and R&D decision-makers across five application verticals.

Direct peers

• Sabinsa: Sabinsa is a leading manufacturer of standardized botanical extracts and nutraceutical ingredients, supplying dietary supplement and functional food manufacturers globally. It is highly comparable to Artemis in target customers (B2B formulators), branded standardized extracts, and emphasis on clinical substantiation.
• Indena: Indena is an Italian manufacturer of botanical extracts and active ingredients for the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and functional food industries. It directly competes with Artemis in standardized botanical extracts supplied to formulators and shares a similar quality and clinical-substantiation orientation.
• FutureCeuticals: FutureCeuticals is a U.S. supplier of fruit, vegetable, and botanical ingredient powders and extracts for functional food, beverage, and supplement manufacturers. It is directly comparable as a domestic competitor in berry and fruit-based ingredient portfolios targeting the same B2B formulators.
• BI Nutraceuticals: BI Nutraceuticals (a division of BGG) supplies botanical extracts, fruit and vegetable powders, and custom ingredient blends to the supplement and functional food industries. It directly competes with Artemis in standardized botanical and fruit-based B2B ingredients.
• Nexira: Nexira is a French supplier of botanical and natural ingredients for food, beverage, nutrition, and personal care industries. It is comparable as a competing B2B ingredient supplier with overlapping application focus on functional beverages and supplements.

Emerging players

• Iprona: Iprona is the European developer and producer of the proprietary Iprona Polyphenol Technology that Artemis distributes under the Craft line. Iprona is both a partner and an adjacent peer; it could in theory compete or bypass Artemis in North America, representing a structural channel conflict risk.
• Fruit d'Or: Fruit d'Or is a vertically integrated supplier of cranberry and wild blueberry ingredients that Artemis distributes under the Fruit d'Or brand. As a supplier-partner with overlapping product lines, it represents both a relationship asset and a potential direct competition risk in the same customer base.

Broad incumbents

• Kemin Industries: Kemin Industries is a global ingredient manufacturer with a broad portfolio spanning food, beverage, nutraceutical, and animal health applications. It is comparable as a much larger, established player operating in the same botanical ingredient space and targeting many of Artemis's customer categories.
• Givaudan: Givaudan (including its acquired Naturex business) is the global leader in flavors, fragrances, and natural ingredients for food, beverage, and consumer health. It overlaps Artemis in botanical extracts and natural colorants serving CPG formulators and dwarfs Artemis in scale, R&D, and geographic reach.
• Kerry Group: Kerry Group is a major taste and nutrition ingredient supplier serving food, beverage, and supplement manufacturers worldwide. It is comparable as a broad incumbent competing for the same B2B formulation slots, with significantly greater resources and global infrastructure than Artemis.
