ORGANIZATION;
Lallemand Inc. is a privately held Canadian company, founded at the end of the 19th century, specializing in the development, production and marketing of yeasts and bacteria. The company is comprised of 12 major business units, each focused on specific applications of yeast and bacteria, with operations and management throughout the world. Corporate offices for the parent company Lallemand Inc. are based in Montreal, Canada.
Lallemand’s presence in the brewing industry dates from the early 1970s when the company started producing dried pure culture brewing yeasts for beer kit manufacturers in Canada. In subsequent years, this activity was expanded to the production of other specific ale and lager beer yeasts for different clients in the United States, Europe and Australia.
Lallemand’s extensive, unique knowledge in the propagation of many different yeast strains led us to be consulted by a number of international breweries on yeast nutrition. As a result of this expertise, we developed and continue to perfect a specialized range of yeast nutrients that target specific problems in the brewery resulting from variations in raw material quality. Lallemand’s beer-related activities have continued to grow, expanding beyond the production of beer yeast and yeast nutrients for the industrial, micro and home brewer.
