Wowtamins Gmbh

What Wowtamins Gmbh does

Wowtamins GmbH is a German direct-to-consumer brand that develops and sells sugar-free, vegan vitamin and mineral gummies and probiotic supplements formulated specifically for children and teenagers. Founded in spring 2019 by Sebastian and Patrick and operated through the legal entity Vanatari International GmbH (Berlin), the company positions itself as Germany's first brand dedicated to children's nutritional supplements in gummy form. The portfolio has expanded from the original Kids Complete SKU to roughly seven active products including Kids Complete, Teens Complete, Omega 3, Eisen (Iron), Magnesium, Kids Multi, Immun, and Probio Sticks, with unit prices ranging from €14.90 to €39.90.

The business runs entirely on a Shopify-powered e-commerce storefront supported by a standard martech stack (Klaviyo for email, Judge.me for reviews, Microsoft Clarity for analytics, Meta Pixel for advertising). Production is contract-manufactured to spec in Germany with vegan pectin-based gummies that are gluten- and lactose-free; the company publishes third-party lab analyses for contaminants and ingredient testing as a trust signal. No mobile app, no API surface, and no AI/ML capabilities are disclosed in the operating footprint.

Commercially, Wowtamins sells B2C direct to parents in Germany and nine other EU countries (Austria, Belgium, Denmark, France, Netherlands, Poland, Romania, Switzerland, Czech Republic) via DHL fulfillment, with free domestic shipping above €25 and volume discounts of 10–15% on multi-unit orders. Cumulative customer count is stated as over 100,000, and the brand is endorsed on-product by a roster of German alternative-medicine practitioners, nutritionists and a biochemist. The 11-person team is bootstrapped with no disclosed institutional investors, funding rounds or parent company, and the managing directors are Melanie Elisabeth Jacobs and Giulio Vanni.
