Nutrigums x fulfilmentcrowd: Revolutionizing supplements with gummies
Scaling Nutrigums through scalable, global fulfillment
As the health and supplement sector continues to grow, seeing a 20% growth in 2022, Nutrigums is an example of just one of the many brands we work with to help scale their business. As well as growing their D2C brand, they are making an impact amongst brick-and-mortar retailers including national supermarkets.
Nutrigums is currently capitalizing on a partnership with supermarket giant Aldi, using free-standing retail display units to gain a promotional placement in-store. In an ever-competitive digital landscape, brands are turning to tactically use bricks and mortar presence to gain consumer buy-in and grow brand awareness by exploiting the diverse and extensive footfall that established retailers have already captured.
Introducing Nutrigums
A health and wellbeing company formed in 2020, Nutrigums specializes in creating nutritional supplements in the form of gummies. Founders Fabian and Louise Whittingham take a family-first approach to health, starting the company to help their son Jack, who is on the Autism spectrum and had difficulty taking traditional vitamin tablets. The gummies are designed to provide individuals with fun and easy ways of improving health and well-being in a way that is convenient and accessible for everyone, across various age groups.
Whether it is promoting gut health, boosting energy, or supporting overall immune function, Nutrigums’ products include it all. They provide customers with detailed information on their packaging regarding the information on each of their products, using the highest quality ingredients free from artificial colors, flavors, and preservatives.
Nutrigums needed a partner that could support their scaling business, shipping direct-to-consumer across the UK and international markets, as well as preparing product kits and ready-to-ship B2B orders for retailers such as Aldi.
Preparation for retail
Nutrigums partnered with fulfilmentcrowd to support the preparation of stock and shipments into the Aldi network. Already holding DTC stock in one of fulfilmentcrowd’s centers of excellence for product rework, the Nutrigums team worked directly with Chelsea Banister, fulfilmentcrowd’s Customer Operations Manager and the fulfilmentcrowd platform to process custom B2B orders.
Chelsea worked alongside the Nutrigums team to brief our fulfillment experts in Martland Park and Crowle order fulfillment centers to prepare the display units before they traveled to their new home — local Aldi stores across the nation.
Building display units and stocking multiple units of 4 SKUs, the team were able to build and stock 1000 retail display units, preparing these for delivery and shipping directly from the fulfilmentcrowd network to Aldi distribution centers nationwide.
Fast and cost-effective shipping
It was clear that when shipping products across the UK and Internationally, Nutrigums needed a fulfilment partner that could ship products quickly and efficiently, whilst maintaining a cost-effective solution and ensuring best-in-class service.
