Here’s how we produce quality products, from start to finish, every time.
SEED TO FEED
Our Seed to Feed process encompasses everything from sourcing only the finest ingredients to meeting or exceeding good manufacturing practices. It is a 14-step quality control system that is unmatched in the industry. We continuously test our products, putting them through an arduous protocol to ensure they comply with the highest quality standards. Here are important aspects:
- Everything starts with quality ingredients, so the first three steps – plant, cultivate, harvest – ensure we have complete traceability of the active ingredients in our products.
- We then start the manufacturing process. By undergoing state-of-the-art blending, compression, packaging and manufacturing, we can guarantee that customers get the exact same high-quality product, whether you are consuming our products in France, India or Mexico.
- Throughout the whole process, rigorous in-process tests are performed. Just to give you an idea: every time we produce a batch of our flagship Herbalife Formula 1 Nutritional Shake Mix, we run more than 300 tests.
Scientific Leadership
We have six research and development facilities around the world. We have seven labs that test for quality, and of those seven labs, one of the labs is responsible for testing the other labs to make sure they’re doing their jobs properly. We have a global operations staff of almost 2,000 people. Our staff includes more than 300 scientists, 50 of whom are Ph.D.’s., who set the Company’s uniform global standard for quality and oversee every aspect of our product development and production.
Quality Certifications that Exceed Industry Standards
All of our manufacturing facilities and laboratories meet or exceed good manufacturing practices, and our world-class laboratories have achieved the highest level of accreditation, which reflects our strict adherence to industry-leading standards. No other company in the industry goes to these lengths. These achievements include:
International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 17025 accreditation
Natural Health Products (NHP) Alliance
NSF International certifications
