Our legacy

More than 100 years and three generations later, MONIN remains a thriving and steadfast family business

Our entrepreneurial spirit and energy,
 coupled with a relentless pursuit for superior quality, are why we’ve made MONIN products for more than 100 years.

Olivier MONIN

a family legacy

MONIN’s story began in 1912 when Georges Monin pursued his passion for flavour and set out to craft syrups designed to amplify beverages and desserts. What started as one man’s commitment to quality and creativity has grown into a family legacy spanning generations.

MONIN Syrup was born.

The sharing of craft expertise and treasured family recipes has shaped our journey from the very beginning. With every generation, we safeguard the integrity of our flavours, while adapting and innovating alongside the evolution in tastes and cultures.

From the Art of Flavours to the World of Hospitality

Over the decades, MONIN has evolved from its original syrup craft into a diverse collection of flavour concentrates, fruit purées and innovative beverage ingredients, consistently redefining the boundaries of flavour creativity.

Together, with our people and our trusted partners, we have crafted a symphony of exquisite flavours. Embracing our rich heritage and envisioning endless possibilities has led us to become the world flavour leader, trusted by hospitality professionals around the world.

Philippe Bergerault - CEO MONIN EMEA

From Bourges to the Ends of the Earth

With its iconic Panache, MONIN has expanded its offices and production sites across all major continents. With its presence impacting hospitality and beverage consumption in more than 150 countries, MONIN is valued globally for the consistency and excellence of its flavours.

We are forever on a journey to craft tailor-made solutions that deliver iconic and tasteful experiences. It’s a sincere promise we make to each
 other - our employees and our partners - to conceive innovative solutions and execute them with unparalleled passion
