FREEHOLD, N.J.—International Vitamin Corporation (IVC) acquired the nutraceutical supplement contract manufacturer Adam Nutrition to better serve the needs of both companies’ current customers and provide a platform for future channel and product expansion.
The cash purchase significantly increases IVC’s existing manufacturing capacity for solid doses and adds a new capability for producing nutritional supplement and functional food powders in the United States. As a result, the combined company will be able to provide customers with much broader product offerings. The added facilities in Mira Loma, California, more than double IVC’s contract manufacturing capabilities and boost the company’s overall packaging capacity—an investment made to help supply record demand for IVC’s existing products at mass market retail.
IVC will now have complete manufacturing, packaging and distribution operations on the east and west coasts, designed to better serve existing mass market retail business and Adam’s more specialized contract business. During the past several years, IVC has significantly increased its New Jersey based capabilities, and it has both immediate and long-term plans to invest in and improve Adam Nutrition’s capabilities.
