The flavors, fragrances, and cosmetic ingredients manufacturer announced on Wednesday, April 15, that it generated EUR 2.012 billion (USD 2.273 billion) in revenue for the 2025 fiscal year, marking a 6.5% increase like-for-like (constant exchange rates and scope) compared with the previous year.
Mane attributes its “outperformance relative to the fragrance and flavor industry,” despite an uncertain global environment, to the strength of its multi-local model — centered on close customer proximity through a network of 54 R&D centers, 31 production sites, and more than 8,000 employees across 40 countries.
“This year, 2025, demonstrates once again the Mane Group’s ability to grow sustainably, innovate, and support its customers despite global macroeconomic pressures. Our family independence is a major asset, allowing us to anticipate, invest, and make bold choices,” emphasized the Group’s President, Samantha Mane, in a press release.
Accelerating innovation
For the current year, the French leader in perfumes and flavors — ranked among the world’s top five players in the sector — plans to leverage its close customer relationships while continuing to invest in innovation.
At the start of the year, Mane announced the acquisition of Belgian biotech firm Chemosensoryx Biosciences, which specializes in the exploration of the molecular mechanisms of chemosensory perception mediated by olfactory, gustatory and trigeminal receptors. The group also entered into a strategic partnership with U.S. startup Arzeda, a pioneer in computational biology, to develop next-generation sweeteners for the food industry.
The group also said that it is intensifying its investments in digital technology, with a particular focus on artificial intelligence, digitalization, and the optimization of its operational processes.
As the first flavor and fragrance company to sign the United Nations Global Compact in 2003, Mane is continuing to reduce the environmental footprint of its operations through the rollout of a new 10-year “regenerative” environmental strategy.
