About Hero Nutritionals

In the mid 1990s, Ms. Jennifer Hodges, founder and CEO of Hero Nutritionals, watched as her nieces and nephews gobbled up gummy treats but balked at taking their chalky, chewable vitamins. Hearing the concern from their parent's about the balance of nutrients in their diet, Ms. Hodges, consulted with children's nutritionists, food chemists and production experts. The challenge was to create a new children's nutritional delivery system incorporating the delightful taste of gummy bears without sacrificing nutritional value. Two years later, the first all-natural gummy vitamin, Yummi Bears, was ready for the natural products market and is the #1 selling children's vitamin in the industry today.

Spurred on by the success of Yummi Bears, in 2007, Slice of Life was launched to provide delicious, all-natural gummy vitamins for Moms and Dads, too. It, too, has proven to be a category innovator with strong selling products meeting key nutritional needs for adults with faster absorption times than a typical supplement tablets.

Hero Nutritionals, continued to make news in 2009 with the launch of Yummi Bears Organics, the first organic gummy vitamin for children. Yummi Bears has always been all natural, gluten, casein and allergen free, but with the additional of all organic ingredients, discerning parents can now rest assured their children have the highest quality gummy supplement available on the market. Early sales figures show Yummi Bears Organics have met the needs expressed by many parents in the natural products industry.

To ensure Yummi Bears products continue to evolve with our consumer's tastes and trends, Hero is now launching a full line of vegetarian products. They include: a fish-less omega item, a calcium item, and a multi-vitamin item. The population of vegetarians continues to increase, as more and more consumers find the meatless diet resonates with their lifestyle and traditions. In order to provide the right balance for growing vegetarians, each product contains the essential vitamins and minerals our consumers need. We have taken careful steps to ensure that all ingredients are allergen, casein and gluten free as our other Yummi Bears products continue to be.
