Nestle Sells Vitamin Empire for $1B | Spokane News

Nestle is offloading its entire U.S. vitamin and supplement empire — including Nature’s Bounty and Osteo Bi-Flex — for a cool $1 billion to private equity firm Yellow Wood Partners, signaling a strategic pivot toward core strengths. The deal, finalized by mid-2027, includes seven brands and private label operations, with Nestle’s CEO admitting this segment needs specialized ownership to thrive. Yellow Wood, no stranger to big acquisitions (six deals since 2019, including ChapStick and Unilever’s beauty division), is expanding its portfolio while Nestle streamlines. This move reflects a broader corporate trend: shedding non-core assets to sharpen focus and empower niche brands under expert stewardship.
