進口代理─阿根廷─「LA TROJA」各式無麩質豆粉

The sustainable food market is a global trend. Legume flour leads the market for its great health benefits, such as maintaining blood glucose level, improving digestion and helping to regulate weight. On this path, La Troja, located in the city of Oncativo, province of Cordoba, produces a wide range of foods with added value based on legumes.

Among its products, the following can be mentioned: native flours, precooked flours, extruded products, modified vegetable proteins, grain selection, deactivated soybeans, and legume-based foods. All its products are certified "Gluten Free" by the Department of Food of the province of Cordoba. 

The firm approached the INTI with the objective of developing two products based on legume flour, one related to the application in the meat industry and the other to the development of a drink. This allowed them to expand their offer of products and is currently in permanent contact with the INTI in order to enhance capabilities in future developments. 

“With the goal of including added value to our production, we have become the only ones in Latin America to work with a grain selection equipment composed with a mill that manufactures flour and a twin-screw extruder to manufacture extruded and precooked products,” explained Lucas Marinsalda – Managing Partner of the company. 

They have been recently engaged in exports to Chile and Lucas Marinsalda commented about this experience: “It was a wonderful experience, because with our ally, an ingredient distribution company, we have developed products such as mayonnaise, vegan medallions, and instant soups, which, together with our application notes, were submitted to their customers to start working.” 

Currently, La Troja is planning to develop strategic business alliances in every country of the American continent. 

Their aim is to add value to Latin American companies and provide solutions to produce food in a sustainable way, with a focus on caring for the environment, animals and people's health. 

“We are a company with a great opportunity, but at the same time we have a great challenge: to show the world the benefits of our raw materials based on legumes,” concluded Marinsalda.
