With a heritage stretching back over eight decades to the early 1930s, our brands - Marel, Stork Poultry Processing and Townsend Further Processing - are among the most respected in the industry, and together we offer the convenience of a single source to meet our customers' every need.

With offices and subsidiaries in over 30 countries on six continents, manufacturing facilities in 17 locations worldwide, a global network of over 100 agents and distributors, and an annual investment of 5-7% of income in research and development - a figure far above the industry average - Marel works side-by-side with its customers to continually challenge, extend and re-define the boundaries of food processing performance.

From the outset, Marel has aimed to enable processors to maximise product yields, quality and throughput, while cutting processing time significantly, and has achieved this by bringing increased automation and efficiency to global food processing through the application of cutting-edge electronic, engineering and software technology.

Drawn from a wide range of professions and disciplines, the company's employees include over 400 highly qualified scientists and technicians in the fields of engineering and technology. Marel currently holds a portfolio of some 200 granted patents, a figure that continues to grow each year.
