Stevia Corp (STEV)

[Warrens]

Think this agreement is up for renewal to but can't find a date. CHICAGO, May 16, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PureCircle (LSE:PURE), the world's leading producer and innovator of stevia sweeteners, has entered into a new stevia supply agreement with Merisant, one of the world's leading producers of low- and zero-calorie tabletop sweeteners for consumers. This new and expanded partnership will help to ensure Merisant's long-term supply of the best-tasting stevia ingredients. Merisant has been a partner and customer of PureCircle for the last ten years. Merisant's sweetener products are sold in more than 90 countries worldwide.

This new agreement focuses on the supply to Merisant of PureCircle's next generation stevia sweetener ingredients like Reb M. PureCircle announced last year that it significantly increased its capacity to supply Reb M to consumer product companies. PureCircle's Reb M is a next generation zero-calorie sweetener from the stevia leaf with sugar-like taste.
