The sale includes seven brands, Nature's Bounty, Osteo Bi-Flex, Ester-C, Gard, Nuun, Puritan's Pride, and Sisu, as well as production, packaging, warehousing, and distribution capabilities in the U.S. This segment generated $1.2 billion in revenue last year, primarily from the American market, with presence in Canada, China, and other regions.
