Spoiler alert: we love making nutrition easy and fun. But to create products in delightful flavours with perfectly blended levels of functional ingredients from trustworthy sources, we have to take what we do seriously.
MAKING OF AN OLLY
Starts with a need
We’re just like you. We worry our kids aren’t getting enough of the essential nutrients they need to grow up healthy and strong. We want steady energy, better sleep and glowing skin so we can look and be at our very best every day. This is why all our products start with a personal need and a strong belief that supplementation with functional ingredients found in nature can have a powerful impact on our health and overall wellness.
Driven by science
We take our grand ideas to our experienced team of health and nutrition experts and when they’re good, they start to dig deep on the science. First, they uncover the latest clinical research on nutritional ingredients that address the desired health benefit. From there, they develop a formula that includes the right form and dose of ingredients to ensure real results. Our team ensures any claims we make about the ingredients in our products are fully supported by published scientific literature.
Crafted clearly
All our ingredients live in two places: inside the OLLY and right on the label. We are committed to transparency, so you know what you’re getting every time you buy and take an OLLY. None of our flavours, colours, and sweeteners are derived from artificial sources. We use non-GMO sources of raw materials whenever possible, plus all our products are gluten-free.
Ensure the quality and safety
We bring in serious oversight with a team of scientific, quality, and regulatory experts to ensure quality and safety at every stage of manufacturing. They make sure OLLY is compliant with all applicable regulations for supplements. We only partner with suppliers and manufacturers who can meet our stringent requirements for transparency, traceability, and documentation. Our products are produced in facilities audited by the FDA and 3rd party certifiers, including NSF, who certify them to be fully compliant with current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMPs). Every product is made to meet our formulators specifications for identity, purity and potency to ensure they meet what their label claims and are free from contaminants. This is confirmed and documented on a certificate of analysis that accompanies every lot of OLLY product produced. All products are also compliant to Health Canada regulations. All products are packaged and rigorously tested for quality by third party laboratories to ensure Canadian standards are met or exceeded.
Flavoured with chef’s flair
We’re a foodie-focused team. We’re obsessed with taste just as much as efficacy. This is because, like you, we’ve used other vitamins and know what it’s like when they aren’t tasty or interesting. That’s why we curated a team of culinary and food science experts to help us explore flavours, textures, and sweetening systems that delight your senses and satisfy your cravings for all things indulgent but healthy.
Packaging with purpose
We like to surprise and delight in everything we do, including our packaging. All our products come in user-friendly designs, that never have to be hidden away in the medicine cabinet. Our custom gummy bottles have smart click-tops, so you know when it’s closed and can be sure the ingredients are protected from air, moisture, and light.
