About Us
KicX Nutrition Inc. is a privately owned and managed Canadian company located in Guelph Ontario, approximately one-hour west of Toronto. Since we started the company back in 1998 we have evolved, expanded and grown by great strides of which our NuHemp™ brand is merely one example. And yet, one thing remains the same: the clear vision KicX was founded on:
To develop and provide the most innovative, highest quality and truly functional natural "good-for-you" products available that proactively promote both human and animal health & wellness…naturally!
Like our NuHemp family of products, our corporate vision is made up of a few essential, holistic ingredients:
Cutting-edge product development: our diverse product development and marketing expertise drives the process from concept to consumption and enables us to capitalize on emerging market trends. We develop unique formulations that support truly sustainable market advantages.
Unsurpassed quality at affordable prices: our strategic alliances and longstanding relationships with North America’s leading cGMP (current Good Manufacturing Practices) manufacturers and suppliers allows us to retain absolute control over all aspects of our products while encouraging breakthrough, scientific advances. This dedication is present in our strict adherence to the highest standards, our demand for the finest ingredients, the highest possible efficacy, purity and quality all delivered at the lowest possible cost.
Superior customer service: we strive to understand and anticipate the needs of our customers rather than working on a reactionary basis, leading to efficient, high quality service.
We've got the whole world in our plans: health and wellness is not just our business-it is our way of life. Our vision is to become a leading force in an industry that promotes the pursuit of physical, emotional and spiritual well-being. And as a conscientious corporate citizen, our vision of the future-and our business plan-incorporates the health of ourselves, our communities and our planet into our bottom-line.
Honest to goodness: keeping our word is fundamental to our business beliefs. So when we say we're committed to providing the most innovative, highest quality and truly functional natural "good-for-you" products available, our interpretation of the word “committed” includes another powerful word -- 'integrity'. Our vision is to only align and partner with suppliers, industry associates and organizations that buy into and share the same commitments we manage our business by.
Success is a team effort!
A top-notch team is made up of a dynamic blend of dedicated talent, visionary leadership and an integrated approach to achieving goals. The KicX Nutrition team draws upon the strengths of a diverse group of professionals, from product development specialists to brand strategists.
Our innovative "think-outside-the-box" group has the savvy and expertise to conceptualize and bring exciting new products to market. It's a tall order, but working together, it's one we continuously achieve.
