A MADE-IN-FRANCE
SUCCESS STORY
Phytomer is celebrating its 50th anniversary in more than 80 countries, in collaboration with 10,000 spas and the best massage therapists in the world.
Below is an overview of the Saint-Malo-based, family-run business’ success story and how it became the world’s leading spa specialist.
Jean Gédouin created Phytomer, so that everyone could experience the sea’s exceptional benefits,
and launched Oligomer®, a powerful seawater concentrate.


Jean’s son, Antoine Gédouin, joined the family business. He developed the company internationally and created a highly innovative, state-of-the-art, laboratory.

Phytomer helped create the US spa industry by co-founding ISPA (the International Spa Association in Florida).


Phytomer opened its first Spa in Saint-Malo, where treatments rhyme with relaxation and wellness.


Mathilde Gédouin-Lagarde and Tristan Lagarde joined the company, contributing to the family saga of Phytomer.

Phytomer created a cutting-edge laboratory specializing in marine biotechnologies and launched soon after the iconic PIONNIÈRE XMF range.

Phytomer received the ECOVADIS certification for the first time, in recognition of its CSR approach, ranking it amongst the most sustainable companies.


Phytomer opened its first Phytomer Spa & Wellness in Paris Champs-Elysées: a high-end spa dedicated to restorative beauty and relaxing treatments.


Phytomer introduced new green and recyclable packaging. The organic line Cyfolia was launched as an ever-more clean and sustainable version of beauty.

Phytomer opened its 2nd Phytomer Spa & Wellness in Paris, just a short walk from the Eiffel Tower: a welcoming atmosphere for intense relaxation.

Phytomer is celebrating its 50th anniversary in more than 80 countries, in collaboration with 10,000 spas and the best massage therapists in the world.
