Anadis signs Heads of Agreement with SPC Ardmona Ltd for health-food research and production

Monday 4 June 2007

Anadis Limited (ASX: ANX) today announced the signing of a heads of agreement with SPC Ardmona Operations Limited (SPCA), a fully-owned subsidiary of Coca-Cola Amatil Ltd (ASX: CCL).

The heads of agreement announces a research, development and commercialisation alliance between the two companies. Anadis will become an Innovation Satellite for the development and enhancement of consumer foods in the growing 'healthy food' segment.

Anadis and SPCA will work together on significant projects of definitive product advancement and differentiation for SPCA.

SPCA is Australia's largest fruit processor and is firmly committed to the innovation of healthy food-based products. The companies believe this strategy will benefit both the health of Australian consumers as well as the companies involved with the manufacture and sale of these products.

Anadis will be a unique partner for SPCA, with its expertise in research and development coupled with an ability to provide relevant underlying science, intellectual property, research management and patented nutraceutical ingredients. Anadis already has patents in the nutraceutical arena and links into senior academics in the nutrition field in Victoria.

Dr Zeil Rosenberg, CEO of Anadis Limited, said: "This heads of agreement demonstrates great confidence by SPC Ardmona, and thereby Coca-Cola Amatil, in Anadis' credentials in the growing healthcare food market. It reflects well on our scientific team to be given the opportunity to create natural health-focused foods for large consumer markets, a product of the 'wellness' revolution, focused on preventative health through, amongst others avenues, high quality nutritional foods."

SPC Ardmona Managing Director Nigel Garrard said: "For a company of our size and with our commitment to quality, we are always looking for new and innovative ways to improve our supply of foods for the healthy food market. We are confident our alliance with Anadis will assist us greatly to do this."
