New Albany, Ohio– Pharmavite LLC, the maker of Nature Made® vitamins, has officially opened a new $250 million manufacturing and research facility in New Albany, Ohio, marking the company’s first major investment in Central Ohio. The 225,000-square-foot site is expected to create 225 jobs and serve as a key hub for vitamin gummy production and product innovation.

The facility expands Pharmavite’s ability to meet rising demand for gummy vitamins—now the fastest-growing segment in the supplements market—and serves as home to the company’s new Gummies Innovation Center of Excellence. The site is already operational and producing Nature Made products for sale.

“Throughout our more than 50-year history, Pharmavite has led the way in producing high-quality vitamins and supplements in the U.S., and this facility enables us to support the growing demand for Nature Made and help more consumers on their health and wellness journeys,” said Pharmavite CEO Jeff Boutelle. “We’re proud to become part of Central Ohio’s growing innovation and wellness ecosystem.”

The decision to locate in New Albany followed an extensive national search. Pharmavite cited the region’s emergence as a hub for science and technology, as well as strong support from local and state organizations, including JobsOhio, One Columbus, and the City of New Albany.

The company has also committed to becoming an active community partner. Since breaking ground in 2023, Pharmavite has launched local initiatives and collaborations with organizations such as Pelotonia, Healthy New Albany, the Mid-Ohio Food Collective, and the Columbus Crew to promote regional wellness and support community development.

New Albany Mayor Sloan Spalding welcomed the company’s arrival, calling it a major win for the city’s expanding health and life sciences sector. “Pharmavite’s investment strengthens New Albany’s position as a center for innovation and health-focused industry,” Spalding said. “Their mission aligns perfectly with our community values, and we are proud to have them here.”

Located at 13700 Jug Street, the New Albany facility complements Pharmavite’s existing U.S. manufacturing operations and supports its full portfolio of brands, including Nature Made®, Bonafide®, Nature Made® Wellblends, Equelle®, MegaFood®, and Uqora®.
