Company Profile

In 1965, Lionel Hitchen, with twenty years experience of the essential oils industry, established LIONEL HITCHEN (ESSENTIAL OILS) LIMITED to manufacture concentrated citrus oils.

Over the years the business has achieved a strong growth pattern both in volume of citrus oils and by diversification into the manufacture of oleoresins and flavours.

Today the Company provides a comprehensive service manufacturing:

  • natural concentrated oils
  • steam distilled oils
  • alcoholic extracts
  • flavours
  • oleoresins
  • dispersed herb and spice extracts

The Company is a leading supplier to the food, beverage, toiletry and cosmetic industries as well as to flavour and fragrance houses.

Lionel Hitchen (Essential Oils) Limited has remained very much a family business, now led by Alastair and Peter Hitchen (joint Managing Directors) and Alison Barnes (Chairman)

From the beginning the Company's excellent reputation has been based upon:

  • continuity and integrity; these are critical factors in this industry, and the company's clients are totally assured of both
  • production of quality products
  • close collaboration with clients to manufacture to their specifications in complete confidence
  • development of new products to meet the needs of an ever-changing market

The pages on this website give an insight into the products the Company manufactures as well as research and development and other services it provides.
