Owner Testimonials

"My name is Jake Halvig and I am the owner of Nutrishop Roseville. As an athlete and a personal trainer, I had been a customer of Nutrishop Chico since 2006. After personal training, I got into e-commerce. Even though the business was lucrative, it was never a true passion of mine, so I decided it was time for a change. I started looking into different business opportunities. After looking into various business models, Nutrishop was not only familiar and something I was passionate about but they also stood out from the rest with their business model and how it was structured. The Nutrishop model is truly designed to help insure the success of the store owner in every way. In 2014 I made the move to Oregon where I opened my first Nutrishop location. After living in California for my entire life, I soon realized that Oregon was just not for me. After one year of being open, the Oregon Nutrishop was on its way to being a very successful store and I was able to leave it to my business partner at the time and move back to California where I once again got back to doing e-commerce. In 2017 I was presented with an opportunity to purchase Nutrishop in Roseville from a good friend of mine Dale Kitt, who was a huge help to me opening the Oregon Nutrishop. After the first month at Nutrishop Roseville, I knew this community was for me and I was all in! With a great business model and support from my fellow store owners and Nutrishop Corporate team, my first year was very successful to say the least and its only getting better! I have truly found my passion! The feedback from the community we are fortunate enough to serve absolutely amazes me and is so satisfying on a daily basis. Thank you Nutrishop!"

"Before my wife and I opened our Nutrishop location, we both worked for the largest data company in the nation. We both worked 5 days a week and long hours each day. It was very demanding for the both of us, not to mention we were micro-managed by our bosses, even though we both were the top producers for our division. Long story short, we weren’t happy. We both always had a passion for health and fitness. I previously owned a Nutrishop location 8 plus years ago before moving to the bay area and always had a plan to own another one. So I reached back out to Nutrishop Corporate. Then when my wife and I started talking to Nutrishop Corporate, we found out that we had an opportunity to open a Nutrishop location in the Bay Area.

This was the most exciting time of our lives besides getting married of course. We were both looking forward to combining our passion for health and fitness with becoming our own boss in an industry that is resilient and growing every year. We knew that in business, especially when you own your own business, you ultimately get out of it what you put into it and with that it was going to be very demanding of our time. Knowing that, we were excited to dive in! We both love helping people live healthier lives and having quality products to support this mission, that are not just about hype, was going to make things much easier. Fast forward to today…we wouldn’t change a thing. The friends and the clients that we have helped achieve their health and fitness goals is the most rewarding part of owning a Nutrishop location. However, if you think opening a Nutrishop location is going to be a walk in a park, you're wrong. Again, you will get out of it what you put into it.

This business is so much more than just selling products to customers. You must be diligent with regard to building your brand and you must be passionate about helping others. Any seasoned business owner and/or entrepreneur will tell you that there is no easy road to becoming a successful business owner. But if you’re willing to put in the work and you truly enjoy helping others, you’ve come to right place!"

"My name is Scott Radford and I am the owner of the Nutrishop in Fitchburg, Massachusetts with my wife Melissa. I was in law enforcement and knew I wanted to make a change. I looked around for opportunities that I could invest in and to go after my dream of owning my own successful business. I have always been into fitness and shopped at local supplement stores. After having sub-par customer service, I talked to my wife and stated that we could open a supplement store, give great customer service and in turn we would do very well. We searched several options to include several franchises when I came across a Nutrishop ad in a magazine. Seeing there was not a Nutrishop closer than 100 miles, we drove to visit a couple to get a feel for the type of store it was. After that, I had a phone call with Corporate, which impressed me even more. After a short conversation with my wife we decided to change careers and give Nutrishop a shot.

The supportive, family-type environment that Nutrishop Corporate has created for their store owners has been second to none. Being a new store in an entirely new area for Nutrishop we were a little worried in the beginning, but with hard work, incredible products and putting our customers first, we have seen continuous growth in sales. Nutrishop as a whole, never fails to amaze me. Not only from corporate but also from other store owners. Thank you for not being like most companies out there! You really have our backs and you put the stores ahead of all and treat us like family."

"My name is Howard Kinnick, after 30 years in the car business and ready for a change, my wife and I were searching for a way to own a business and reinvent ourselves. We had both shared a lasting passion for health, fitness and nutrition and decided after much research, that Nutrishop was the right fit for us.

We have quickly learned in the last year, that not only have we joined a great established company, that we are also proud to sell clean, efficacious products that we can truly stand behind. We were excited last October, that our son Alex and his wife, Alexis joined our business. We now have control over our own destiny, as well as our son having the independence to master his family’s future with an incredible system and team like Nutrishop USA . We love being a part of Nutrishop USA!"

"Before taking over Nutrishop Tupelo, I was working at a furniture factory as a supervisor.  I had been with the furniture company for about 10 years and was really ready for change, so when I was asked to take over our local Nutrishop location as the manager, I was interested as I always had a passion for health and fitness. However, it turned out that I could not afford to leave my current job just to manager the store.  With that, I was then offered the opportunity to buy the store outright. I was unsure of how I could make that happen financially, but I decided to go out to California to meet with some of the staff from Nutrishop Corporate and learn more about the Nutrishop business model. After that meeting, I was all in and decided to give my notice to my current employer and move forward with purchasing the Nutrishop location.

At this point, I welcomed the challenge and was ready to turn the store turn around and take it to new heights.  It took everything I had plus some to be able to purchase the store.  I am extremely thankful to my parents who had faith in me and helped me with a loan.  I am also thankful for my supportive wife, who also had faith in me. Without them I would not have been able to do it. Thankfully, with plenty of hard work, so far the gamble has paid off.  As of this writing, we have had our store for almost 6 years now. I am so fortunate to get to go to work every day to a business that I absolutely love! I believe the biggest factor for the store’s success is due to pure hustle along with the relationships I have built with my customers. Couple that with all of the incredible products Nutrishop offers, the incredible results our customers achieve along with our guaranteed low prices, and you have a recipe for success."

"I have been with Nutrishop for over 10 years now. Running my own business is very rewarding and it’s even better knowing I have a strong, reputable brand like Nutrishop, Inc. in my corner. It’s also an incredible feeling and extremely rewarding knowing that I am helping people reach their health and fitness goals. I have never seen another company operate the way Nutrishop does, with honesty and integrity while always putting their store owners first.

I cannot emphasize enough the way that Nutrishop, Inc. truly cares. I also take comfort in knowing that Nutrishop stores carry the best dietary and nutritional supplements on the market in my opinion. Since I’ve been in business, there have been 3 other supplement retail stores open and then close because of their inability to compete with the products, pricing and service that Nutrishop stores provides their customers! I couldn't imagine trying to be in business and succeeding with any company other than Nutrishop."

"Before opening up my Nutrishop location, I was working in the corporate world fresh out of college with a degree in Business Administration. After about 2 years of sitting in an office dealing with conference calls all day long, I began to realize that this was not what I wanted to do for the rest of my life.

I’ve always had a dream of owning my own business and while in school, I had some experience working in a retail nutrition store. After some thorough research and due diligence on my part, I decided to look into Nutrishop and their business model. I was very impressed with the Nutrishop system and quickly learned that when implementing the system correctly, it gives me as a store owner unlimited earning potential. I opened my first store in 2007 and in just a few short years, I was fortunate enough to open a second location! It’s been over a decade now and we’re still running strong! Nutrishop gives me the freedom of controlling my own destiny. I definitely made the right decision in choosing Nutrishop as a vehicle to my entrepreneurial career!"

"Owning a Nutrishop has been one of the most rewarding experiences someone can achieve. The positive impact of our store in the local community has been amazing. It is one of the best feelings in the world to constantly have people within the community stop and thank us for changing their lives for the better, for helping them finally reach fitness and health goals they were never able to before. Prior to opening Nutrishop, I explored every other major franchise nutrition retailer, and found no other company put product quality and customer's needs before profit. All the others focused so much on trying to sell inferior products for as high price a price as possible, or making money off customers in ways that I would feel uncomfortable charging people for.

It was clear to me, Nutrishop is clearly the best Sports Nutrition company suited for long term growth and stability from customer loyalty and having the most effective products. Owning a Nutrishop is not a simple pop up with someone just operating the cash register, so it does require effort and passion. This is a business for someone who truly has a vested interest in seeing customers achieve results. But this is what makes Nutrishop such a successful investment as it ensures your customers always come back. This is what allowed us to outsell all our competition in just our first year in business. This is what allowed us to experience year over year growth and profitability. As is true with any business, you get what you put into it. Owning a Nutrishop just makes putting in that work easier, more fun, and more rewarding."
