Midwest Laboratories started operation in 1975 as A & L Mid West Agricultural Laboratories, Inc. The principal business of the laboratory was agricultural analysis of Soil, Plant tissue, and Feeds. Client demand soon caused expansion of analytical capability into Pesticide analysis, Water analysis and Microbiological analysis. Over the years we have added Food, Pet Food, Fertilizer, Nematodes, Biosolids, Petroleum, and Hazardous waste analysis.

The company name was officially shortened to Midwest Laboratories, Inc., showing our broader scope of services, in June of 1993.
