History
In 1998 the company opened its first office in Toronto, Canada.[6][5]
In 1999 Erik Megrabyan partnered with Leonid Lapp and became a co-owner of Coral Club. Rolf Eriksson, the owner of Alka-Mine worldwide, transferred the exclusive rights to sell Coral-Mine (Alka-Mine) to Coral Club the same year.[4]
In 1999 Royal Body Care, which in 1996 acquired Light Force, founded by Christopher Hills, became the partner of Coral Club.[4]
In November 2000 Coral Club increased its market presence.
In 2008 despite the crisis, the turnover of the Coral Club continued to exhibit steady income growth compared to 2007. In the same year, the company's owners, Leonid Lapp and Erik Megrabyan, arranged the development of the products under their brand exclusively. Coral Club distributor partners increased by 25% in 2008.[7]

In 2021–2022, Coral Club carried out three major online projects and created its own platform for online events. The total coverage of the company's digital projects amounted to about 3 million people.[9]
Research
The alternative medicine "BION Institute",[10] headed by Professor Igor Jerman, conducted a series of studies of Coral-Mine's effects on the properties of water and is based on the pseudoscientific theory of Water memory.[11] The studies established that Coral-Mine has a significant and enduring effect on the water resulting in the most biologically active form of water. The findings were published in January 2021 by Water Journal[12]
The effect of coral club products on the reduction potential (ORP) of drinking water was studied by Goncharuk et al. It is shown that when water is treated with coral calcium, its ORP shifts into the negative region. This value corresponds to the optimal ORP values for intercellular fluids of body tissues.[13]
Business Model
Coral Club uses direct selling and network marketing with a multi-level compensation system as a business model and networking. Coral Club's marketing plan gives the possibility to be rewarded based on monthly turnover.[14]
The company also operates an academy to improve the skills of partners.[15][16]
