Who owns Vital Proteins?
The idea for Vital Proteins began when founder Kurt Seidensticker’s’ joint pain prevented him from running, according to the company’s website. After much research, Seidensticker felt that the key to supporting joint health was to add a collagen supplement to his diet, as he believed that diet alone wasn’t giving his body enough amino acids to produce collagen on its own.
Nestle Health Science, a business unit of Nestle SA, has completed its acquisition of Vital Proteins, a Chicago-based manufacturer of collagen-based foods, beverages, and supplements. Nestle first acquired a majority stake in Vital Proteins in June 2020, and over the past two years, Vital Proteins has shown “incredible growth. As part of the completion of the acquisition, Tracey Halama has been named CEO of Vital Proteins. She succeeds Kurt Seidensticker, founder of Vital Proteins, who is stepping aside.
