Recap: Girls'Day 2026 at Biohealth

Gaining insights into professions in which women have been underrepresented so far – that is exactly what Girls'Day is about. The nationwide action day offers schoolgirls the opportunity to get to know new perspectives, discover interests, and overcome apprehensions about supposedly 'atypical' fields of work.

This year, at Biohealth, we opened our doors for the first time as part of Girls’Day and invited female students to experience the world of food production up close. Our goal: to show how practical and future-proof this industry really is. And, of course, to inspire an interest in a career at Biohealth.

The day started with an interactive welcome session. Through an icebreaker game, the participants immediately began talking to each other and then received a first brief theoretical insight into our company.

Even at this point, it became clear: there is much more behind the production of dietary supplements than just manufacturing. It is a combination of a lot of teamwork between the different departments. Starting with consulting, through product development, procurement, and logistics, all the way to production and quality management.

How differently products can be perceived was shown by the subsequent tasting. In the smelling jar test and the analysis of different tastes, the participants sharpened their senses and got a sense of the role that sensory perception plays in the development of dietary supplements.
