Grove Nutrition Starts Operations

TRING HERTS, EnglandGrove Nutrition Ltd. is now doing business in the United States, offering finished softgels, tablets and hard-shell capsules for finished dietary supplements. According to Troy Linton, joint managing director, changes to the global marketplace are driving greater interest in sourcing products from Asia. As energy and labor costs continue to increase, there is an elevated opportunity for U.S. marketers to take advantage of the competitiveness offered on finished products from the Far East, particularly on high volume commodity products, he said. After all, over the last ten years, U.S. contract manufacturers have been purchasing significant tonnages of raw materials from Asia, so why not take more advantage of buying finished products from there, too?
