The arrangement will initially use Bunge’s oilseed-processing capabilities as BASF prepares to launch InVigor Gold in the US in 2027.
The stronger performance was driven primarily by robust results in its Soybean and Softseed Processing and Refining segments, supported by improved market conditions and an expanded global platform following the Viterra integration.
The company has completed a US$5 million upgrade that will increase soybean processing and expand support for Italian farmers.
The appointment comes as Bunge expands its US business, raises its 2026 earnings outlook and increases shareholder dividends.
The company also linked the move to stronger soybean processing results and recent growth in its US operations.
