“Today’s NPA represents more than 1,400 members and unites a diverse industry of retailers and manufacturers offering the leading food, dietary supplements, and health/beauty aids. Now, for the first time, the entire Natural Products ecosystem will coalesce around a single event where show profits will go directly to funding the growth of the association.” commented Daniel Fabricant, Ph.D. Executive Director and CEO with the NPA.

“Given the access the NPA has to the leading organizations and innovators driving the natural products sector, creating a true ‘by the industry, for the industry’ event is a natural extension of our mission to ensure that retailers and suppliers have the opportunity to provide consumers with the products that maintain and improve their health.” Fabricant concluded.
