Mitch Gould, founder and CEO of Nutritional Products International and InHealth Media, presented his Evolution of Distribution model at the 2025 ECRM Vitamin, Weight Management & Sports Nutrition Session held at the PGA National Resort & Spa in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. The conference served as a critical platform for connecting retailers and suppliers across the health and wellness industry. ECRM events have established themselves as the standard for building relationships between retail buyers and industry decision makers. Gould's participation emphasized his company's ongoing commitment to accelerating brand growth in the highly competitive U.S. marketplace.
The session provided an optimized environment for both established and emerging brands to meet directly with key category buyers from across multiple retail channels. ECRM continues to be one of the most effective venues for building relationships with retail buyers and industry decision makers, said Gould. The opportunity to engage directly with these professionals allows us to showcase how NPI and IHM help brands navigate the complexities of entering and expanding within the U.S. market.
During the conference, Gould made presentations to major retailers including Walmart, GNC, Vitamin Shoppe, Vitamin World, CVS, and Walgreens. These presentations reinforced NPI's position as a trusted partner for connecting brands with some of the most influential names in U.S. retail. The company's decades of experience span sports nutrition, dietary supplements, health and wellness, and consumer packaged goods.
