Descriptiontext

Supplement World is a privately-held specialty retailer of sports nutrition, bodybuilding, weight loss, and vitamin supplements founded in 2013 and headquartered in Wichita, Kansas. The company operates two physical retail storefronts — its flagship at 6370 E Central Ave in Wichita and a second location in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma — combined with a BigCommerce-powered e-commerce website (supplementworldstores.com) that ships nationally and offers same-day shipping on select items. The product portfolio spans pre-workout supplements, protein powders, BCAAs and recovery products, anabolics/testosterone boosters, creatine and glutamine, fat burners and weight loss stacks, vitamins and minerals, fitness-oriented food and drink (including Clean Eatz prepared meals and TASTE FLAVOR CO. sauces), and fitness apparel and accessories. The retailer carries its own proprietary Supplement World / ONNX Nutrition house brand alongside third-party labels including Ghost, NUTRABIO, HTLT, PEScience, Black Market Labs, Anabolic Warfare, High Tech Pharmaceuticals, and Raw Nutrition.

The business operates on a transactional, one-time-purchase revenue model with no subscription tier or membership lock-in. Pricing is unit-based, ranging from $8.99 for flavored sauces to $249.99 for full bodybuilding stacks, with mid-tier supplements commonly priced in the $39.99-$99.99 range. Same-day local delivery and in-store pickup for meal products such as Clean Eatz supplement the physical retail experience. The go-to-market motion is direct-to-consumer across both channels, supported by organic social media presence on Instagram (#TEAMSW), Facebook, and YouTube, plus email newsletter and blog content marketing.

Customer acquisition and community engagement are driven by local experiential programs including the Wichita Athlete Search and Run Club, supplemented by athlete endorsement events such as the Andre Ferguson meet-and-greet. The target customer base spans three primary personas: competitive and recreational athletes and bodybuilders seeking performance and physique products, weight loss seekers purchasing thermogenics and meal replacements, and health-conscious consumers buying vitamins and general wellness supplements. The company is led by founder and CEO Dustin West, with Jordon Shaw serving as Director of Operations and VP. There is no evidence of external investment, parent company ownership, or institutional backing in the available source data.
