CK Ingredients and CK Nutraceuticals are dedicated to serving the North American food, beverage, dietary supplement and cosmetics industry. We take pride in adding value to the purchase of functional, nutritional and nutraceutical ingredients. Early in 2007, with nearly eleven years under my belt as a raw material supplier to the food industry, I noticed that several gaps existed in the natural health products marketplace; specifically: (1) a relative lack of unique and innovative raw materials that could serve to help natural health products marketers add value to their products and differentiate themselves in a crowded marketplace; and (2) very few ingredients supported by well-designed human clinical studies that are necessary to substantiate product benefits and claims. As a result, CK Nutraceuticals was born.Now, after ten short years, CK Nutraceuticals has become a trusted supplier to North America's premier dietary supplement and natural health product manufacturers and marketers. We offer an extensive line of proprietary evidence-based products that enhance the marketing appeal of natural products and, at the same time, satisfy the strict regulatory requirements of Health Canada and U.S. FDA. We also maintain our food ingredient business, providing innovative ingredients to the world-class food manufacturing sector in North America.I am privileged to be an active contributor to the food, beverage and natural products industry. My team is fully committed to helping the industry succeed and we look forward to a future where disease prevention, not symptom management becomes the norm in our society.Specialties: Sales and Marketing strategy development and execution in the natural health products (dietary supplements) space. Extensive experience in the sales, marketing and distribution of unique and innovative science-based nutraceutical raw materials, both in North America and globally.
