VALOSUN

What VALOSUN does

WALMARK a.s. is a Czech dietary supplements company that develops, markets, and distributes a focused portfolio of vitamins, minerals, herbal extracts, essential fatty acids (omega-3/6/9), and antioxidants sold under the Walmark brand. The current product line includes Beta Glukan PREMIUM 200 mg (immune support with black elderberry and rosehip, child-friendly from age 3), Omega-3 rybí olej FORTE 1000 mg (EPA/DHA for heart, brain, eye, and mental vitality), B-komplex PLUS s vitaminem C (energy and skin/hair), Pupalka dvouletá PLUS 500 mg (evening primrose with vitamin E for skin and menstrual comfort), and Biotin 300 µg (hair and skin). Products are organized in a need-based taxonomy covering immune support, energy and concentration, organ health, mental health, and beauty/vitality, with a seasonal "yellow line" merchandising layer driving repeat purchase. The company operates as a subsidiary of STADA, a German-headquartered global pharmaceutical and healthcare group, and sells exclusively through Czech and select European retail and pharmacy channels (BENU, Dr.Max, Pilulka, Lékárna.cz, EUC Lékárna, Alza.cz, Notino, Wavita). WALMARK runs an 11–50 employee organization headquartered at Oldřichovice 44, 739 61 Třinec, and supports consumers via a helpline (800 141 141), a branded content magazine (Walmark Magazín), and Facebook/Instagram channels. No revenue, AI capabilities, or active M&A activity are disclosed in the available data.

Note on company identity: the firmographic record labels this entity "VALOSUN" (a probiotics supplier in the Czech Republic and Slovakia, headquartered in Brno, founded 1997), but the underlying source data — including the homepage at walmark.cz, the legal name "WALMARK a.s." (IČO 00536016), the Třinec office address, the STADA ownership, and the product portfolio — all consistently describe WALMARK a.s., not a Brno-based probiotics business. This analysis treats WALMARK as the subject entity because it is the only one with substantive supporting data.
