Finally, we welcome a Product Development Scientist who has experience in the nutraceutical/food processing business both with internal production processes and maintained supplier(s) approval program. She will be supporting our “white label” 3rd party customers and their development teams as we design new value added products using our proprietary EU and USDA certified organic Omega-3 powder.
