BioGaia AB has signed an exclusive agreement with Norwegian-based Kavli Holding AS that gives Kavli the right to use BioGaia's patented probiotic Lactobacillus Reuteri Protectis in dairy products in Norway. Kavli's subsidiary Q-Meirierne AS is now launching the BioQ yoghurt drink on the Norwegian market.
"We are proud to be able to offer Norwegian consumers a yoghurt drink containing BioGaia's health-enhancing probiotic bacterium. The BioQ products have been well received by the grocery chains in Norway and we believe that this gives reason to anticipate a similar positive response from Norwegian consumers. BioGaia and Q-Meieriene have developed BioQ in a relatively short span of time, enabling Q-Meieriene to give Norwegian consumers greater freedom of choice in probiotic yoghurt drinks," says Erik Volden.
"Kavli is an interesting partner for BioGaia and we look forward to a long and successful collaboration," says Peter Rothschild, Managing Director of BioGaia AB.
