The Opportunity

Glanbia Performance Nutrition (GPN) is a global leader in sports nutrition, with brands including Optimum Nutrition, Isopure, BSN and others sold in more than 100 markets worldwide. Our mission is to inspire people everywhere to achieve their performance and healthy lifestyle goals. In the UK, Optimum Nutrition is the no1 in the sports nutrition category, trusted by elite athletes and everyday gym-goers alike. As the category continues to grow rapidly and attract a broader audience, our ambition is to build deeper connections with the next generation of performance consumers while strengthening our leadership in core formats such as Whey Protein, alongside innovation in areas like Creatine, Collagen and Protein Water.

Isopure is the latest lifestyle nutrition brand aimed at women seeking high-quality, clean ingredients to support their pursuit of a healthy and well-balanced life. Built on a simple brand idea, Less Is More, the brand removes the complexity from nutrition offering great tasting Whey protein and Collagen products with only the ingredients you need, and nothing you don’t.
