GNC is the world’s largest chain of specialty vitamin, mineral, herbal and sports nutritional supplement retailers. Our first store was opened in 1935 in Pittburgh by David Shakarian. Originally called “Lackzoom”, the GNC (General Nutrition Center) name was born in 1960. We started selling our own ranges of vitamins and mineral supplements later that decade.
We’ve come a long way since those humble Pittsburgh beginnings. GNC is now the world’s largest health retailer, with over 6,000 stores in 50 countries across the globe!
We’ve been in Hong Kong since 2003 – and by late 2008 we had 9 specialist stores, plus specialist counters and stock in Mannings Stores across the territory. In just five years we’ve established ourselves as one of Hong Kong’s leading health supplement brands – and we’re always working to get even bigger and better as we help everyone live their best life.
The GNC Difference - Product Quality
We’re committed to quality. GNC only uses the best ingredients and employs rigorous quality assurance testing and manufacturing standards.
We subject our products to up to 150 quality checks before they arrive on our store shelves and all our ingredients are issued with a Certificate of Analysis.
Our products are packaged in safety-sealed tamper-evident packaging and go through a series of checks before they’re put onto the shelves. This series of checks and balances ensures that GNC products are the safest and most efficacious supplements on the market.
