Prodalim Acquires Brazilian Botanical Extracts Producer Sylvestre to Enter Fast-Growing Nutraceutical Market

WINTER GARDEN, Fla. — Prodalim, a global leader in juice and specialty ingredients solutions, announced the acquisition of Sylvestre, a leading Brazilian producer of botanicals and functional extracts addressing the nutraceutical market. Sylvestre‘s existing owners and management team will remain with the company and support its integration into Prodalim’s platform.

Founded in 1992 in Brazil, Sylvestre is a trusted supplier of high-quality natural ingredients, specializing in botanical extracts, fruit powders, superfruits, teas, and unique functional plant-based solutions sourced from the rich and diverse Brazilian flora. With a portfolio of more than 200 natural ingredients, the company serves customers across the food, beverage, and nutraceutical industries, supporting wellness-oriented and health-driven applications.

Leveraging Brazil’s rich biodiversity and advanced extraction and spray-drying capabilities, Sylvestre has developed strong expertise in delivering clean-label, high-value botanical systems to both domestic and international markets. The acquisition positions Prodalim to deepen its fast-growing functional beverage solutions offering, accelerate its expansion into the US functional ingredients market, and broaden its presence across emerging markets.

The global nutraceuticals market includes an approximately USD 10 billion B2B ingredients segment and a B2C market exceeding USD 500 billion, both growing at an estimated CAGR of approximately 7–8%, driven by increasing consumer demand for preventive health, wellness, and functional nutrition solutions. This strategic addition enhances Prodalim‘s capabilities in natural extraction and functional ingredient development, broadens cross-selling opportunities, and accelerates the global reach of its portfolio through Prodalim’s commercial and supply chain platform.
