The NutraIngredients-USA Awards have returned for 2025 with three new categories and a continued dedication to honoring the best and brightest in ingredients, finished products, companies, people and initiatives in the dietary supplements industry.

Entries for the awards are welcome across 16 categories, and the closing date for awards entries is Friday, March 14, 2025.

For our 8th Annual Awards, we have added three new categories:
