What DULFIX SA does

DULFIX SA, operating commercially as EMETH ("La Verdad en Alimentos"), is an Argentine food manufacturer with origins in Laboratorios EMETH SRL, founded in 1963, and the current corporate entity established in 1991. The company manufactures and commercializes food ingredients and finished products across three product lines: Gastronomy (professional culinary products such as flans, gelatins, cream pastes, and baking powder targeted at restaurants, hotels, and food service); Materias Primas Panadería (raw materials for bakeries and confectioneries including powdered sugar, essences, colorants, pastry cream, fondant, chocolate coatings, glucose, honey, malt flour, and baking powder); and Consumo Masivo (mass consumer products including dulce de membrillo, dulce de batata, cakes, muffins, brownies, jams, gelatins, flans, desserts, essences, and canned goods such as hearts of palm, mushrooms, and pineapple). Many products across the portfolio carry SIN T.A.C.C. (gluten-free) certification.

Production is centralized at a 10,000 m² plant in Ciudadela, Buenos Aires province, inaugurated in 1992, operating under FSSC 22000 food safety management and ISO quality standards. The company distributes nationally across all Argentine provinces through a network of approximately 30 independent regional representatives organized by product category (Materias Primas Panadería, Consumo Masivo AMBA, Consumo Masivo Interior, Industries) and territory, with additional wholesale and retail channels for consumer packaged goods.

Revenue is generated through direct sales of manufactured food products to both B2B customers (bakeries, confectioneries, restaurants, industrial clients) and B2C consumers (mass market packaged goods), with pricing not publicly disclosed and orders placed via the sales representative network. The company began exporting in 2007 and invested in a new inventory management system and warehouse renovation in 2015. DULFIX SA is privately held with no disclosed investors, funding rounds, or headcount data.
