Sorbic International's principal activity is the production and sale of the food preservatives Sorbic Acid and Potassium Sorbate from its base in Linyi City, Shandong Province, Peoples Republic of China ("PRC"). Approximately half of Sorbic International's production is sold to overseas markets, across 46 countries and half into the Chinese domestic market. The Company came to AIM in September 2008 with a progressive profits record and in the six months ended 30 June 2008 it made profits before tax of £2.26 million.
Sorbic Acid is a naturally occurring organic compound that is used in all kinds of foods for its anti-decomposition and anti-fungus function and also in grains, medicines, cosmetics, toothpaste, tobacco, animal feed, latex, paper-manufacturing and pesticides. Potassium Sorbate is used to inhibit moulds and yeasts in many foods, such as cheese, wine, yogurt, dried meat, baked goods, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.
