CON-CRĒT Creatine HCl Opens First Creatine Manufacturing Facility in the US
8 May 2024CON-CRĒT Creatine HCl Opens First Creatine Manufacturing Facility in the US in 2023. CON-CRĒT Creatine HCl produced by Vireo Systems provides finished branded product as well as functional ingredients.
Creatine is a naturally occurring amino acid-based molecule in the body that provides the energy for every cell to function optimally. Supplementing with creatine helps optimize and increase the body's much-needed creatine supply and assists with improved energy, immune health, sexual wellness, and especially brain functions. CON-CRĒT and Vireo Systems are committed to making this supplement widely available and educating people about the tremendously positive impact creatine naturally has on the body.
"Vireo is investing in this plant and in our CON-CRĒT® brand because concentrated creatine is arguably the most important supplement a person can take to support their overall health (and fitness)," says Mark Faulkner, Vireo CEO. "Basically, if a cell doesn't have adequate energy to function at its best, nothing else really matters. Creatine is the key to driving the energy of every cell in the body; and many American diets need more creatine. Being the first and only domestically made creatine aligns with our mission to provide innovative and science-backed products that every-body needs for health and wellness."
In addition to domestic production of the creatine supplement, the plant also is creating jobs and improving the local economy and work force. During this past year, the $16.6 million building project helped support 124 jobs in the construction industry and an additional 72 jobs in the community based on the increased economic activity. Looking forward, the plant will ramp up to create 200 new jobs in the coming years and a forecasted $174 million in economic impact each year.
