When Maypro was founded in New York in 1977, it was a small company with a big vision — to improve human health and happiness by importing the best-quality nutraceutical ingredients and bioactives to the US market from Asia.
Many of today’s specialty blockbuster ingredients — such as CoQ10, glucosamine, chondroitin sulfate and alpha lipoic acid — were first introduced from Japan to the US market by Maypro. As the United States started to develop proprietary, patented nutraceutical ingredients in the 1990s, Maypro led the introduction of Citrimax®, Pycnogenol®, Tonalin®, Neopuntia® and Liposan Ultra® and many other products to the Japanese market.
Today, Maypro has grown into one of the largest global suppliers of nutraceutical ingredients and bioactives, with six strategically located companies in the US, Italy, Japan, and China while serving hundreds of countries worldwide.
