A & L Great Lakes Laboratories, Inc.

A & L Great Lakes Laboratories, Inc. is an independently owned and operated agricultural laboratory located in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The laboratory occupies an 22,000 sq ft facility, and employs 35 full-time team members. A & L Great Lakes Laboratories was established in 1976 by Mr. Don Ankerman and Dr. Richard Large to provide agricultural analyses to the Great Lakes region. The A & L Vision was to develop a regional network of laboratories, and the A & L Group eventually expanded to nine locations in North America. A & L Great Lakes Laboratories became an independent lab from the A & L Group in 2002. Initially established to provide independent soil sample analysis quickly and at a reasonable price, A & L Great Lakes continues to expand its analytical capabilities to include many types of sample matrices including soils, plants, feedstuffs, fertilizers, manures, and composts. Our Agricultural Division's testing capabilities have made A & L Great Lakes Laboratories your one-stop lab. QUALITY ANALYSES FOR INFORMED DECISIONS®
