Company bio
Irwin Naturals was founded in 1994 to simply provide great quality products to improve people’s health. Since then, we have grown the company and also our ambition! Grounded in a commitment to people and the planet, our dream now is to heal the world with plant medicine. Irwin Naturals is a successful and growing nutraceuticals (natural products and supplements) company with headquarters in the Silicon Beach area of Los Angeles. We are the leading producer of soft-gel based herbal formulas with products sold in over 100,000 doors, such as Vitamin Shoppe, Costco, RiteAid, Walmart, CVS, Sprouts, Fresh Thyme, many e-commerce sites, and directly on www.IrwinNaturals.com. As a spirited powerhouse, we are one of the very few legacy companies that helped propel the industry to where it is today. We are currently expanding our healing mission into cannabis and mental health psychedelics and will be the first well-known brand to pioneer into these fast-growing, emerging markets. Our thriving team is innovative and entrepreneurial, with a collaborative energy to drive toward on-going successes. With health and wellness at the forefront of our company mission, we seek to attract, retain, and develop employees who share our commitment to innovate, advance, and lead. And so, with our audacious mission in mind, in August 2021, we became a publicly traded company on the Canadian Securities Exchange.
