BioZyme Incorporated
For over 70 years, BioZyme has pioneered innovative solutions in animal well-being and nutrition through supplements, health products, and feed additives. As an industry leader in fermentation, BioZyme has made it our mission to improve the quality of your animals’ lives. How? By offering innovative, research-proven solutions to challenges faced by animal producers, owners, and advocates. As a business dedicated to developing innovative supplements for better animal nutrition and health, our expertise and product lines go beyond cattle health. Founded in 1951 by a former feed salesman, BioZyme was built for animals by animal lovers. At the core of our products is AO-Biotics(R) Amaferm(R), a proprietary prebiotic produced from the fungus Aspergillus oryzae. Over 70 years ago, Amaferm paved the way for prebiotic supplements decades before they became commonplace. That core ingredient is how BioZyme products promote digestive health, gut health and overall wellness across various species. Our research-driven, animal nutrition solutions provide support for cattle, swine, poultry, sheep, goats, horses, dogs, cats, and more! At BioZyme, we mean what we say. We hold ourselves accountable for researching, developing and delivering products that achieve the results we claim. Amaferm has been research-proven to increase digestibility in over 175 published studies and counting. BioZyme also uses the same strain of A. oryzae to develop new pre-biotics and post-biotics to enhance our supplements and animal health products. The BioZyme Family of Brands include AO-Biotics®, VitaFerm®, Gain Smart®, Vita Charge®, Sure Champ®, Vitalize®, DuraFerm® and Backyard Boost®. Headquartered in St. Joseph, Missouri, BioZyme brings quality supplements, feed additives, and animal nutrition solutions to a global market. Customers across North America, South America, Europe, Asia and the Middle East know they can turn to BioZyme for care that comes full circle.
