What Sochim International does

Sochim International is associated with the Naturacare group, a European contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) specializing in dietary supplements for human and animal nutrition. Naturacare operates five production sites across Montaigu (France, group headquarters), Mons (Belgium), Rotterdam (Netherlands), and Milan and Modena (Italy), and reports more than 35 years of CDMO experience. The company serves nutraceutical brands and manufacturers through a project-based, full-service model that takes clients from ideation and brief analysis through feasibility studies, laboratory and pilot batches, full-scale production, packaging, logistics, and administrative support.

The group operates three distinct service offerings under trademarked brands: NaturaOne for fully custom formulation, NaturaGo for ready-to-market private label solutions, and NaturaInoveo for co-development partnerships with marketing and innovation support. Underlying capabilities span solid and liquid dosage forms (powders, multilayer tablets, effervescent tablets, hard capsules, softgels, liquid capsules, compress gums) plus advanced formulation expertise including probiotic gastroresistance, controlled-release coatings, and sensorial customization. The portfolio includes 1,500+ active ingredients sourced from certified suppliers (botanical extracts, probiotics, vitamins, minerals, peptides). The company holds ISO 22000, ISO 13485, FSSC 22000, and ISO 14001 certifications, supporting its positioning with nutraceutical brand clients subject to stringent quality audits.

Revenue mechanics are not publicly disclosed. The go-to-market motion is enterprise field sales supplemented by trade show presence at CPHI 2026 (Fiera Milano, stand 20H54, October 6-8 2026), NFBD 2026 (June 16-18), and Vitafoods Europe 2026, with LinkedIn as the primary social channel. Customer segments are segmented vertically: human nutrition (primary), nutricosmetics, sports nutrition, women's health, and animal nutrition. Recent product launches in 2026 include the patent-pending Drinkaps galenic form (gelatin shell with liquid core) and NaturaGo Expert line extensions (Digest Fizz effervescent tablets and Flex & Mind Extend bilayer extended-release tablets). Pricing is project-based and quote-driven rather than tier-disclosed, reflecting the custom nature of CDMO engagements.
