Vitalix founder and owner Greg Olson says, “The Uniblok company’s values align with ours. And the purchase allows Vitalix to expand offerings in Canada, as they produce a quality product that does not directly compete with our products.”

Uniblok’s current employees, including management, will continue at the facility in Rockyford, Alberta, with assistance from the Vitalix staff including a Ph.D. nutritionist. Knowledgeable field staff will assist producers and dealers with nutrition and management questions.

Vitalix has been in operation since 1989, based out of Alliance, Nebraska. It’s a family business with many small-company attributes, although it’s been expanding steadily since acquiring new plants in the U.S. in 2012 and 2013. Since this newest acquisition, the company is now producing top-quality supplements in four plants throughout the U.S. and now Canada.  end mark
