We make more of grain
GoodMills Innovation GmbH, based in Hamburg-Wilhelmsburg, develops and produces functional ingredients from grains, pulses and their fractions. The company combines traditional milling with physical refinement processes such as fermentation, hydrothermal treatment, extrusion, micronisation and air classification – without chemical additives. The portfolio comprises around 300 products: speciality flours, sourdoughs, baking improvers, texturates, protein and fibre enrichments, wholegrain solutions and clean-label mono-ingredients. Customers range from craft bakeries via mid-sized industrial companies to international food corporations; applications range from bread and baked goods to savoury snacks, meat and fish alternatives and dietary supplements. In the Innovation Center with pilot facilities, recipes are developed from prototype to production readiness. The company was founded in 1883 as a mill in Berlin, is part of the GoodMills Group, and generated revenue of €95 million in the 2024/2025 financial year with 167 employees.
