Vitaquest Expands Probiotic Supplement Manufacturing With New World-Class Probiotics Suite

With one-third of supplement users now taking probiotics, demand is accelerating across the category. Vitaquest’s expansion positions brands to scale confidently while protecting product quality.

At Vitaquest, we are proud to announce the opening of our state-of-the-art Probiotics Supplement Manufacturing Suite in Parsippany, New Jersey. This significant expansion increases our capacity and capabilities to meet the rapidly growing demand for probiotic supplements and reinforces our long-term commitment to innovation, quality, and partnership.

As a leading contract manufacturer of dietary supplements, we continue to invest in advanced infrastructure that enables our customers to innovate, scale, and compete confidently in one of the fastest-growing segments of the supplement industry.

 

Meeting Growing Demand for Probiotic Supplements

Consumer interest in probiotics continues to accelerate as awareness grows around their role in digestive health, immune support, cognitive health, and overall wellness. According to Nextin Research™’s Supplement Trends, nearly one-third of supplement users have taken a probiotic in the past 12 months.

As this demand grows, we believe it’s our responsibility to invest ahead of what’s next.

At Vitaquest, we are building best-in-class manufacturing capabilities that allow our customers to grow with confidence. Our new Probiotics Suite is a direct reflection of that commitment.

 

Inside Our New Probiotics Manufacturing Suite

Our new Probiotics Manufacturing Suite was purpose-built to support the complex requirements of probiotic supplement manufacturing, where precise handling and environmental control are critical.

The suite includes:

  • Two dedicated blending rooms
  • Four encapsulation rooms
  • Advanced environmental controls designed to protect probiotic viability and potency

These upgrades deliver meaningful advantages for our customers, including:

  • 100% increased probiotics manufacturing capacity
  • Expanded formulation capabilities with additional probiotic strains
  • Support for new dosage forms and personalized wellness products
  • Quality systems that exceed global regulatory standards

This investment reinforces our leadership in probiotic supplement manufacturing and reflects our continued focus on operational excellence across our facilities.

 

Why This Matters for Supplement Brands

For brands competing in the crowded probiotics market, manufacturing quality can be the difference between a product that delivers on its label claim—and one that falls short. With our expanded Probiotics Manufacturing Suite, we provide the infrastructure, capacity, and technical expertise brands need to protect probiotic integrity, scale efficiently, and bring differentiated, science-backed products to market with confidence.

 

Technical Insight: How We Protect Strain Stability and CFU Potency

Probiotics are living organisms, and their effectiveness depends on maintaining strain stability and labeled CFU counts throughout shelf life. Our Probiotics Manufacturing Suite was engineered with controlled environmental conditions, optimized material flow, and specialized handling protocols to minimize exposure to moisture, heat, and oxygen during blending and encapsulation.

These controls help us preserve probiotic viability, support consistent potency, and reduce the risk of CFU loss over time—critical factors for regulatory compliance, product performance, and consumer trust.

 

Precision, Quality, and Experience in Probiotic Supplement Manufacturing

Manufacturing probiotic supplements requires specialized expertise in working with living organisms, where stability, strain integrity, and environmental precision directly impact product quality.

With decades of experience and an enhanced manufacturing environment, we ensure precise handling, formulation, and quality control throughout every stage of production. Our goal is simple: to help brands bring stable, potent, and compliant probiotic supplements to market with confidence.

Partner With Us for Probiotic Innovation and Scale

With increased capacity and world-class probiotic manufacturing capabilities, we are uniquely positioned to support both emerging and established brands as they innovate, scale, and differentiate in the probiotics market.

Frequently Asked Questions About Probiotics Manufacturing

Why is specialized manufacturing important for probiotic supplements?

Probiotics are highly sensitive to temperature, humidity, and oxygen. Specialized facilities and processes are essential to maintain strain viability, ensure labeled CFU counts, and support product stability throughout shelf life.

How does increased manufacturing capacity benefit probiotic brands?

Increased capacity allows brands to scale faster, support new product launches, and avoid supply constraints as demand grows. It also provides greater flexibility for formulation updates and new strain development.

Can Vitaquest support custom or next-generation probiotic formulations?

Yes. We support a wide range of probiotic strains, dosage forms, and personalized wellness solutions, backed by decades of formulation expertise and our comprehensive, standards-based quality system.
