LR Health & Beauty SE, Europe's leading social commerce company for nutritional supplements and beauty products, has reached an agreement with significant investors to restructure its financing, securing €20 million in new capital while significantly reducing its debt. The comprehensive restructuring of its 2024/2028 Bond and capital structure creates a sustainable foundation for implementing targeted strategic measures aimed at driving future success.
Chief Executive Officer Jorg Korfer stated that this agreement represents an important milestone in repositioning the LR Group for future viability. "On the basis of a solid financing structure, we aim to initiate targeted strategic measures to now bring the LR Group onto a successful trajectory," Korfer explained. The company plans to focus on consistent digitalization of business processes, further development of its product portfolio, and expansion into new markets.
The financing restructuring comes as LR continues to leverage its social commerce model, which emphasizes personal exchange within its community through efficient digital solutions. The company's holistic tool "LR neo" provides international partners with business-relevant key figures and information through a single dashboard. This digital infrastructure supports LR's position as a "people business" that has operated since 1985 with a focus on personal consultation.
Korfer highlighted the importance of LR's partner community to the company's future success, noting that following successful start-of-year events and the launch of an innovative new product under the LR Body Mission brand, the company aims to create additional incentives for partner activities throughout the year with promising product innovations. The business model appeals particularly to those seeking more flexibility, better work-life balance, and greater financial independence in changing working environments.
LR operates in 32 countries from its headquarters in Ahlen, Westphalia, producing and distributing high-quality nutritional supplements and cosmetic products under the motto "More quality for your life." The company has developed core competencies in aloe vera processing over more than 20 years, using only the leaf's valuable interior for its products. In Ahlen, LR has built one of Europe's most modern aloe vera production facilities for aloe vera drinking gels.
The company's commitment to social responsibility includes the LR Global Kids Fund e.V., founded in fall 2009, which supports disadvantaged children and their families in many countries through cooperation with local institutions.

This financing restructuring matters because it provides LR Health & Beauty with the financial stability needed to compete in the growing social commerce and wellness sectors. The €20 million capital injection and debt reduction enable strategic investments in digital transformation and market expansion at a time when consumer interest in health, beauty, and flexible work opportunities continues to increase globally. The agreement signals investor confidence in LR's business model and its potential for sustainable growth across its 32-country footprint.
