COMPANY
Welcome to EMPWR Nutrition, we aspire to become the global leader in development & co-manufacturing of bars in the healthy snacking segment.
Our company was founded in 2020 and has experienced remarkable growth ever since. We produce some of the most iconic and leading brands, setting the standard for taste and texture in the market. We offer a wide range of possibilities within the protein bar segment, that are not only nutritious but also delicious. We’re active in The Netherlands, Croatia, USA, Canada and Belgium, with 1300 passionate employees.
In 2020, we started our operations in Croatia. In 2022, we expanded our operations to North America by acquiring the McMinnville, OR facility. In both plants we’ve invested massively in the production equipment over the last years. In 2023, we expanded our operations to the Netherlands by acquiring the Leerdam facility.
This year we’re expanding even more and transform our operations into state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities. With joined forces, we continue to grow.
