Society Brands (see Pulse 2.0 profile here), a consumer products company built for and by founders, partnered with the founders of Vitality Now for Society’s latest acquisition in the Direct-To-Consumer Health and Personal Care space, which will represent their fifth consecutive deal in this sector.
Vitality Now (a provider of mental performance and body restoration supplements) is at the forefront of the health and wellness industry. And the company’s growth can be attributed to its team led by Brian Bigelow, Robby Amaro and Adam Elkaim. Over 90% of Vitality Now’s business can be attributed to DTC sales. Its product offerings include supplements to support brain health and performance, improve sleep quality and next-day function, stimulate healthy stem cells in addition to sooth spray and Fungus Exodus, which supports healthy feet.
Through the deal, Society Brands boosted its brands within the health and personal care sector, with that space representing nearly 75% of Society Brands’ revenue. And Society plans to take Vitality Now to further heights, extending the reach to health-conscious consumers that would benefit from Vitality Now’s suite of products, expanding internationally, and introducing in-demand products.
Northbound Group served as a financial advisory to Vitality Now and this deal represents the third brand added to Society Brands’ roster this calendar year. Earlier this year, Society Brands acquired Clarifion and Cleanomic. Society Brands currently supports 12 brands.
