Vantage Nutrition, a leading provider of contract manufacturing and formulation in liquid-filled hard capsules for premium nutraceutical products, showcased its latest innovations at Vitafoods India in Mumbai. Harish Kapoor, vice president and head of sales for India and the rest of the world, highlighted the company’s growth and strategic vision.
Vantage Nutrition, a subsidiary of ACG Group, was established in response to growing customer demand for finished formulations in the nutraceutical sector. Vantage operates two plants in India and one in Philadelphia, USA, focusing on vegetarian capsules for various formulations, including single oil products, suspensions, and powder-in-oil combinations.
“We are bringing cutting-edge technology to the market, allowing customers to verify our pharmaceutical-grade facility,” Kapoor said. “With health-conscious consumers prioritizing proactive healthcare, the nutraceutical industry is poised for significant growth over the next 15 years.”
The company collaborates with leading brands such as VLCC and Zandra. It has expanded into global markets, supplying more than a dozen products to Saudi Arabia and exporting to the UK, US, and CIS countries. Kapoor said Vantage’s proprietary technology enables the company to manufacture both capsules and the machinery required for production, offering a comprehensive solution for brand owners.
Vitafoods India provided an opportunity for Vantage Nutrition to connect with start-ups and emerging businesses. “This event brings together a dynamic mix of industry leaders and new entrants eager to explore innovative solutions,” Kapoor noted.
Discussing market trends, Kapoor said awareness of liquid-filled capsules is increasing in India. “People realize oils such as MCT and coconut oil can be encapsulated for easier consumption,” he said. “Our R&D capabilities allow us to convert traditional softgel formulations into vegetarian capsules, catering to the growing demand for plant-based alternatives.”
The company remains committed to developing innovative, high-quality solutions that align with the evolving preferences of health-conscious consumers.
“We are proud to be part of this industry’s evolution and look forward to contributing further to the development of advanced nutraceutical solutions,” Kapoor concluded.
