P.L. Thomas & Co., Inc. announced the company has been renamed PLT Health Solutions Inc.
November 11/Morristown, N.J./Press Release -- P.L. Thomas & Co., Inc. announced the company has been renamed PLT Health Solutions Inc., effective immediately. The 60-plus year-old company has been a fixture in the Natural Products and Food & Beverage industries -- first as a representative firm and then a distributor. The new corporate identity reflects its evolution and current status as a supplier of ingredient solutions to consumer products companies and as a strategic development partner to ingredient suppliers around the world. Over the past decade, the company has become a supplier of globally sourced, proprietary, branded ingredients marketed to consumer product companies with clinical, regulatory, intellectual property, and formulation support. Accompanying this evolution has been the addition of scientific, regulatory, marketing, and technical personnel. The company will unveil its new corporate identity at the 2013 Supply Side West Exhibition in Las Vegas, November 13-16.
Paul Flowerman, president of PLT Health Solutions, notes, “Consumer products companies in the health and wellness space demand more from their suppliers. These companies expect their development partners to present ideas and ingredients with market-ready commercial potential backed by solid science, and we have strengthened our resources to meet those expectations. We provide many of the functions in the ingredient discovery/development/supply chain process that multinational manufacturers do -- including consumer and clinical research, intellectual property development, management of regulatory issues, formulation assistance and, of course, supply and logistics. Our focus is on being a strategic supplier and on helping our customers build and maintain strong brands. Given our business model, our company also has the ability to be extremely nimble and market-focused,” he said.
