About us


- History -

In 1967, John Silliker inaugurates the first laboratory dedicated to food microbiological analysis. At the end of the 90s, the Institut Mérieux acquires Silliker and the expansion project begins: it will lead to the birth of Mérieux NutriSciences whose target is the development and the supply of services and global solutions to safeguard consumers’ health. 
With its headquarters in Chicago, Mérieux Nutrisciences gained brand awareness and prestige in food safety and quality. The Food sector is the first that trusted Mérieux NutriSciences’ skills: the Company thus widened its expertise in other industrial sectors such as the agrochemicalsector , environmental services, pharmaceuticals and medical devices, consumer goods , cosmetics
The growth occurred in recent years led the Group to be present in more than 20 countries with more than 80 labs offering analytical and consultancy services, auditing, training, contract research and sensory analyses. 
In 2014, Mérieux Nutrisciences Italia –with 6 branches and more than 800 employees–acquired Total Quality Food (already operating since 1992), making it its Food Compliance Solutions Department.


- The Staff -

The team includes around 45 people in 5 European seats (France, Italy, Poland, Portugal and Spain). The roots of our legal, scientific and linguistic skills are well consolidated after more than 20 years: this means a multi-disciplinary and multi-sector consultancy activity.
The three technical departments cooperate with Customer Care and a team dedicated to Subscription Services.
In more than 20 countries, a network of experts is available to supply customers with a consultancy project even in the markets where a Mérieux Nutrisciences branch is not present.
