Puriva Nutrition
Puriva Nutrition formulates personalized, ready-to-consume nutritional products at the retail level, from 2-ounce liquid “shots” to freshly baked protein cookies to bulk powders.
Our prices are lower than every consumer channel, including Costco, Amazon, Walmart, Vitamin Shoppe, Target, and GNC.*
Over the last 20 years, the company founder has developed and manufactured more than 100 distinct nutritional products, which were sold through more than 50,000 retail locations in the U.S.
In 2010, he developed and licensed a custom-hydrolyzed protein to PepsiCo for use in the Gatorade product line.

Mission
Our goal is simple: Lowest prices for the cleanest, safest ingredients. We operate with transparency so that you know exactly what you’re buying. Manufacturers are permitted to use ingredients called “processing aids” that do not need to be disclosed to the consumer. We do not need processing aids because we blend and sell at the retail level — our products do not need stabilizers, preservatives, and other ingredients required to maintain shelf-stability for up to 2 years in a warehouse.
We maintain a current certificate of analysis for every one of the 150+ active ingredients, natural flavors, and natural sweetenes we stock.
Vision
Wholesale pricing for additive-free, customized nutrition should be available to everyone. In the beginning, our model is only available to customers within a relatively small region outside of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. But, we’re just getting started.
Owner
James Duffy
In the late 1990s, James Duffy developed a unique process for hydrolyzing proteins into palatable peptides – a process that had eluded researchers for decades.
In 2001, Duffy started a ready-to-drink protein shot business in Lafayette Hill, Pennsylvania. In 2008, he purchased the former Lehigh Valley Dairy plant and moved operations into the 200,000+ square-foot, GMP-certified manufacturing plant.
Between 2001 and 2014, Duffy developed “nutritionally dense” formulations for dozens of popular brands from Sunkist® to Celsius® to Gatorade®.*
Duffy’s protein intellectual property has been used in over 100 products and sold in more than 50,000 retail locations.
