Standard Process: Leading in Whole Food Supplements Since 1929 [business spotlight]
Standard Process has been a family-owned leader in whole food
nutritional supplements since 1929. President and CEO Charlie DuBois started his
career at Standard Process in 1983. He was elected president by the board of
directors in 1995. In 1996, the DuBois family became the third generation to
own Standard Process, with DuBois carrying on the legacy of his great uncle,
Dr. Royal Lee. He is honored to lead a company that is committed to carrying
out Lee’s whole food philosophy so that healthcare professionals and their
patients will continue to receive the best in whole food nutrition. Although
they have been in business for more than 90 years, Standard Process continues
to pursue the vision of the founder, Lee, who recognized nutritional
deficiencies caused by processed foods and industrial food production. Standard Process is based in Palmyra and is proud to call Wisconsin home.
What benefits
do you bring to your customers?
Quality is at
the heart of all that we do. Our methods—everything from juice extraction to
packaging—exceed industry standards so that our products maintain their vital
nutrients and convey their intended benefits. In addition, our scientists run
as many as 2,000 tests every week so that we can be sure that what is on the
label reflects what is in the bottle.
Why are your
products important for improving nutritional health?
We recognize
that the relationship between food and health is more important than ever due
to the lack of nutrients found in the standard American diet. We also realize
that nutritional supplementation works best when provided with professional
guidance. We partner with qualified healthcare practitioners who believe in a systematic
approach to health care and help patients continue on the path to optimal
health.
What sets you
apart from other supplements?
Our
competition—like the majority of American nutrition—utilizes ingredients that
travel hundreds or thousands of miles before they reach their destination. The
great majority of the raw ingredients we use to make our products are grown
right here in Wisconsin on our certified organic farm, which is located about a
mile away from our headquarters. We take advantage of the Kettle Moraine’s rich
farmland, and have never wavered on our organic and regenerative farming
practices: no pesticides, no herbicides and no genetically modified organisms
(GMOs). We cultivate ingredients from seed to soil to supplement so that
they’re presented in their ideal form.

about your partnerships with providers.
We go to great
lengths to fulfill our mission with a product line that contains more than 300
nutritional supplements—all of which have the potential to change lives. In
addition, our practitioner partnerships help ensure the best outcomes for
patients, which is something we find very special.
What is next for Standard Process?
Standard Process has been changing lives for more
than 90 years, and we’re just getting started. Our belief in the power of
nutrition continues to grow stronger, and our commitment to patients and
holistic health care gets deeper every day. We have a proven history behind us
and a vibrant future in front of us. We’ve got a number of exciting initiatives
