Heritage & History
NOW Foods was founded in 1968 in Bloomingdale, Illinois by Elwood Richard, who believed that natural supplements and wellness products should be available to everyone at honest prices — not just to those who could afford premium health food store markups. Richard's philosophy was straightforward: use the same high-quality ingredients as premium brands, manufacture to the same rigorous standards, and pass the savings from efficient manufacturing directly to customers.
Nearly six decades later, NOW is still family-owned, still headquartered in Bloomingdale, and still operating on the same principles. The company has grown into one of the largest natural products companies in the United States with over 1,500 products, but it has never gone public or sold out to a conglomerate. That independence has allowed NOW to invest in manufacturing technology, quality testing, and product development without the pressure of quarterly earnings reports.
Made in Bloomingdale, Illinois
NOW Foods operates manufacturing facilities in Bloomingdale, Illinois and Sparks, Nevada, with all US-facility products explicitly labeled Made in USA. The company has been GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) certified since 2000 — one of the first major supplement companies to achieve this certification and among the most rigorous practitioners of quality control in the industry. NOW operates an in-house laboratory that tests both raw materials and finished products for potency, purity, and contamination.
The product catalog spans vitamins and minerals, protein powders, sports nutrition, herbal supplements, essential oils, personal care products, and natural foods. NOW is particularly well-regarded for its commitment to transparency: the company publishes detailed testing data and has been vocal about exposing fraudulent supplement practices in the market. For customers who want supplements that are American-made, family-owned, and backed by genuine quality testing, NOW Foods is the trusted standard.
