OptiBiotix Health plc (AIM: OPTI), a life sciences business developing compounds to tackle obesity, high cholesterol, diabetes and skin care, announces it has entered into a manufacturing, supply and distribution agreement with Maxum Foods Pty Ltd ("Maxum"). The agreement grants Maxum an exclusive license to manufacture, supply and distribute OptiBiotix's SlimBiome® weight management technology in Australia and New Zealand.

Founded in 2003, Maxum is an Australia-based dairy supplier headquartered in Brisbane and operating a dry blending facility in Melbourne, as well as distribution centres throughout Australia and New Zealand. Maxum has been named one of Australia's fastest-growing SMEs on the 2018 Smart50 list with a turnover of AUS$150.7 million in 2018 and a 110% growth between 2016 and 2018.

SlimBiome®, an award winning weight management product, will be supplied by Maxum as a specialised functional ingredient, into a wide range of applications including, but not limited to, human nutrition comprising food and beverages, dairy, dietary supplements and sports nutrition.

This is another strategic step by OptiBiotix to derisk its supply chain and extend the market reach of SlimBiome® by adding manufacturing in Australia. Partnering with an established distributor that services over 950 customers and to whom it sells approximately 35,000 metric tonnes of dairy per year, will extend the commercial opportunity for OptiBiotix's patented award winning weight management product into the Australian weight management market which is estimated to be worth AUS$320 million in 2019 (source: ibisworld.com.au).

Dr. Fred Narbel, Managing Director of OptiBiotix's prebiotics division, commented: "We are pleased to announce the signing of a manufacturing and supply agreement with Maxum. We chose Maxum due to their knowledge of the Australian and New Zealand markets as well as their experience in distributing specialty ingredients like SlimBiome® and their reputation for supplying high-quality products to the food industry. We believe working with Maxum, and similar partners around the world, provides the best opportunity of increasing our global commercial reach and catering to the growing interest we are seeing in SlimBiome® from partners worldwide."

Dustin Boughton, Director of Maxum stated: "We are excited to be working with OptiBiotix in Australia and New Zealand. Our logistical and technical expertise and access to distribution channels within these markets means this is a natural fit for both companies. The manufacturing and supply of SlimBiome® is aligned with our goal of bringing innovative and high quality products to our customers."
