Modern Gummy Packaging
In a category traditionally filled with powders and tablets, gummies provide a modern alternative for consumers who seek an easy and enjoyable way to incorporate supplements into their daily routines. The fun texture, bright colors, and gummy candy-like flavors have all contributed to gummies' well-established popularity in the nutritional space. Now, due to the widespread demand for wellness-oriented products, gummy supplements have grown into categories like beauty, skin care, gut health, mental health, sleep, and energy.
