The Taiwanese supplements market is predicted to grow by a 27% growth by 2021. The agreement creates a pathway to access territories in the Asia Pacific region with a total probiotic retail value of $16.1 billion, of which supplements are $700 million.

"This is a strategic step in developing the sales channels into the Asian probiotic markets and the commercial reach of OptiBiotix's LPLDL® strain. Enhancing our presence in Asia allows OptiBiotix to offer multiple product solutions through partnerships with consumer health and pharmaceutical companies, which has the potential to create multiple revenue streams, including those coming from the newly launched CholBiome products containing LPLDL®."
