Lallemand Health Solutions

Vertically integrated probiotic and yeast ingredient manufacturer with R&D and production in France and Canada offering custom and ready-to-market formulations.

Lallemand Health Solutions, a business unit of Lallemand Inc., specializes in the development, production and marketing of probiotic bacteria and yeast supplements for human health applications. The company has over 90 years of expertise, with roots tracing to 1934 when Dr. José-Maria Rosell founded the Rosell Institute in Montreal. Lallemand acquired the Rosell Institute in 1998 and has since consolidated research and production capabilities through acquisitions of facilities in France and Canada. The company operates manufacturing plants including Saint-Simon in Aurillac, France (bacteria production), Harmonium 1 and 2 in Mirabel, Canada (bacteria production), a yeast facility in Vienna, and PerfecLab in Quebec for blending and packaging. Harmonium 2, a cutting-edge 11,000 square-meter plant, was inaugurated in 2022.

Production capabilities include formulation and manufacture of documented probiotic strains in multiple formats. The company holds GMP certifications for natural health products and pharma manufacturing, with Saint-Simon authorized for human medicinal products and human investigational medicinal products since 2021. Lallemand Health Solutions offers contract development and manufacturing (CDMO) services through its Expert'Biome™ platform launched in 2023, targeting the next generation of probiotics and live biotherapeutics. The company produces over 600 probiotic formulas marketed in more than 60 countries across five continents, with applications targeting gut health, mental health, women's health, skin health, oral health, natural defenses, metabolic health, sport, babies and healthy aging. In 2023, the company acquired Dietary Pros Inc., a US-based contract manufacturer specializing in probiotic supplements.
