COMPANY OWNED AND MANUFACTURING FACILITIES

With state-of-the-art production facilities in the USA, Optimum Nutrition is one of the few sports nutrition companies to manufacture in every product category.  From the very beginning in 1986, Optimum Nutrition has always taken a hands-on approach to maintain the very highest standards of quality.

 

UNCOMPROMISING QUALITY

Before a single machine is turned on in our manufacturing facilities, ON procurement professionals carefully select the most premium raw materials. A Certificate of Analysis is required for every ingredient, which is then tested and retested for compliance. Quality assurance performs daily inspections of our current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMPs) compliant facilities, which are GMP Registered and GMP for Sport by NSF.

 

HISTORY OF INNOVATION

In addition to making Gold Standard 100% Whey, the world’s best-selling whey protein powder, Optimum Nutrition created the slowly digesting protein category with Gold Standard 100% Casein. Optimum Nutrition also created the anytime energy category, which remains dominated by Essential Amino Energy, and recently launched the game-changing Protein Whipped Bites the new on-the-go protein snack.  Innovation continued to be a key element of branded growth with new products in energy, isolates, and plant-based formats.

 

CUSTOMER SATISFACTION

Optimum Nutrition’s strict ingredients selection, quality control, lab testing, and manufacturing processes are all done for one reason: to provide you with the highest quality sports nutrition products available. Our company was founded with a mission to bring consistent quality to the marketplace, and we are constantly working on setting even higher standards.
