“Our science has always been a driver for brand owners to join with NattoPharma,” said NattoPharma CEO Kjetil Ramsøy in the press release. “Our MenaQ7 Vitamin K2 has been the source materials for more than 20 published human clinical trials with more underway, confirming bone and cardiovascular benefits. As we look to the future, we see nothing but promise and potential, particularly as the benefits of Vitamin K2 are expanding, where again, we will lead in that discovery.”
NattoPharma has spent nearly 20 years focused on scientific validation for its vitamin K2, the press release states. In October 2020, however, Andrew Green joined the company as VP of Global Marketing and Communications, and he felt that the time had come to highlight that dedication via rebrand. “Joining NattoPharma, I was struck by the company’s story, the passionate pursuit of science, and the overriding mission to improve human health,” Green said in the press release. "The brand lift connects the decades of successful work creating the K2 category with the Japanese origins of K2. The new logo is born out of the Japanese concept of ‘Ikigai’, meaning ‘Purpose for being’. This can be seen in Ikigai diagram on the About Us page. We use the four quadrants of this philosophy to express our connection to Mission, Passion, Vocation, and Profession, and encourage you to view the short brand video.” That video can be viewedon the website's homepage.
