Company DescriptionSince 1947, Solgar has been committed to the health, philosophy and ideology of the wholesome lifestyle community. Our ongoing mission is to create wellness-oriented innovations with the highest purity and nutritional benefits. From the beginning, Solgar has understood the importance our customers place on well-being. That’s why we distribute our products in the natural products channel where knowledgeable retailers can guide consumers through the vast array of choices.

From the beginning, Solgar has been dedicated to maintaining the highest standard for quality — the Solgar Gold Standard™. Since most Solgar products are manufactured in our own state-of-the-art facilities, we are able to ensure premium quality throughout the entire process. Solgar’s manufacturing facilities meet the highest standards for machinery, procedures and quality control.

Solgar has a rigorous quality control system in place. All materials coming into our facility are subject to stringent tests to ensure they are the highest quality. Any materials that don’t meet our quality standards are rejected and sent back to our suppliers. We also do extensive testing at multiple stages — from raw material to finished product. Solgar’s on-site Quality Laboratory ensures that each product leaving our door meets our Gold Standard™ for quality.

Quality has been Solgar’s guiding principle since 1947 and is deeply ingrained in every step we take. We are committed to continually raising our Gold Standard™ for quality as science and technology evolve.

Key Markets ServedSolgar’s finished product is distributed from our own global distribution centers located in Pennsylvania, Nevada, the United Kingdom, South Africa, New Zealand and Spain.

Our product line includes Halal, Kosher and vegetarian and vegan supplements in varied doses and forms. Most Solgar products are also non-GMO and free of gluten, dairy and wheat. In accordance with our Gold Standard™, we try to avoid sugars, salts or fillers in our products whenever possible.

At Solgar, every department is dedicated to supporting our customers’ needs.
