INW Group

What INW Group does

INW (Innovations in Nutrition and Wellness) Group is a contract manufacturer serving nutrition and wellness brand owners, producing a broad portfolio of finished dosage forms including drinks, gels, creams, lotions, shake mixes, capsules, and tablets. The platform is headquartered in Ogden, Utah, and operates 1.3 million square feet of manufacturing and warehousing across the United States and the United Kingdom, organized through six subsidiaries: Dallas One Solutions, ProForm Laboratories, Phoenix Formulations, Living Ecology, Capstone Nutrition, and Bee Health. INW employs between 1,001 and 5,000 people and is private equity-backed by Cornell Capital following a 2023 buyout that established the platform for further roll-up activity.

The company's core capabilities span formulation, blending, filling, and packaging across multiple delivery formats, operating under cGMP standards required for dietary supplements and topical products. Revenue mechanics are typical of contract manufacturing: INW produces goods to specification for brand-owner customers, generating fees tied to volume, complexity, and dosage form. Beyond contract services, certain subsidiaries (Living Ecology, Capstone Nutrition, Bee Health) carry branded and white-label product lines, providing secondary revenue streams through distribution channels.

INW's go-to-market targets nutritional supplement, functional food, and personal care brand owners seeking compliant multi-format manufacturing capacity. Commercial outreach includes major industry trade shows such as SupplySide Global 2025. Customer concentration is not publicly disclosed, and the platform's horizontal segmentation approach suggests revenue is distributed across many brand-owner accounts rather than concentrated with a small number of large customers.
