Tate & Lyle PLC (“Tate & Lyle”) and McNeil Nutritionals (“McNeil”), a Johnson & Johnson company, announced today the realignment of their sucralose activities into a new global alliance designed to maximize the market penetration and accelerate the worldwide growth of sucralose.

Under the agreement, the companies will co-operate closely to further the development of the sucralose business. Tate & Lyle will act as exclusive broker for sucralose ingredient sales in certain key markets outside of North America. McNeil will exclusively market the Splenda® tabletop brand of sucralose to retailers worldwide.
The formation of this alliance represents a continuance of the 20-year partnership between the two companies. Sucralose, a non-caloric sweetener made from sugar, is manufactured by McNeil in the United States, and is currently approved in over 40 countries worldwide.
Larry Pillard, Chief Executive of Tate & Lyle said: “We are glad to be able to further our long-standing relationship with McNeil through this alliance. The new arrangements will enable us to leverage our global sales network and offer this exciting product to more of our customers alongside our existing range of value added carbohydrate-based food ingredients and sweeteners.”
