We are 4 young entrepreneurs: Pauline, kinesitherapist-aromatherapist, Hugo, doctoral student in food science, Laurie-May, specialized in ethology (psychology of animals!), and Paulin, the utopian entrepreneur who allowed vegalia to be born!
The idea of Vegalia was born after a road trip in Togo during which we visited a spirulina aquaculture field. There, we became aware of the incredible properties of this blue algae, but when we returned to France we were disappointed by the exorbitant market prices and especially by its taste, which is too pronounced, characteristic of an addition of chemical products or a drying at too high a temperature.
After analyzing and tasting spirulina from all over the world, we found Caroline Spirulina (our little blue-green algae!) on the plateaus of Mongolia at an altitude of 3000m: raised in the open air and splashing around in water rich in minerals and trace elements.
Its culture, without chemical products, and its drying at low temperature (<42 °) offers a good taste, a super content of vitamins and minerals what allowed him to obtain all the European organic certificates with brilliance of which Ecocert France!
