WESTCHESTER, Ill., September 8, 2015 - Ingredion Incorporated (NYSE: INGR), a leading global provider of ingredient solutions to diversified industries, announced today that it plans to consolidate its manufacturing network in Brazil.

The consolidation will begin early in 2016 and should be complete by the end of the year. It is expected to result in annual cost savings of $6 - 8 million USD beginning in 2017. Total pre-tax restructuring-related charges of $13 - 16 million USD are anticipated in the third quarter of 2015. 

"We continuously evaluate our manufacturing network for improvement opportunities.
