Easy, Green, and Clean!

Dec 27, 2011 1:43 PM

We’re very excited to be the first store in the nation to carry VitalBulk’s Super Green bulk vitamin dispenser. This patented system reduces costs and materials while dispensing a wide variety of bulk vitamins, including Basic One-Multi Vitamin, C Caps, Calcium Citrate with Vitamin D3, Cal-Mag Citrate, Vitamin D3, 1200 Ωmega-3 Fish Oil, Flax Oil, and Glucosamine Sulfate. In addition to eliminating bottles and caps, you’re significantly reducing your use of packaging material and your carbon footprint. VitalBulk’s dispenser ensures cleanliness and shelf life with VitalBulk’s bag-liner and secondary dispensing technology, so the supplements are safely sealed. After being sealed in the factory, there is no potential contamination from handling at the store level. Our Vacaville store is piloting this program and we hope that with its success we will be able to bring this technology to all our stores. Look for the VitalBulk display in our Healthy Living department. Not only are you being green by buying in bulk, you’re also saving green (money that is)!
