Their story
Vital Proteins was founded in Chicago by Kurt Seidensticker and built its name on collagen. It started by selling online and grew into a line of about 150 powders, bars, shots, waters and supplements found in tens of thousands of stores.
In 2020 Nestle Health Science bought a majority stake in the company and later acquired the rest, so Vital Proteins is now owned by Nestle. It still runs out of Chicago, where it has a large manufacturing and distribution center.
How it's made
Vital Proteins makes and ships its products from its own 180,000-square-foot facility in Chicago. The range is built around collagen, offered as powders, bars, shots, enhanced waters and supplements.
