Navitas Naturals, The Superfood Company, is based in Novato, CA, and started up in 2003. CEO and founder Zach Adelman and his team seek out the most nutrient dense superfoods used in cultures around the globe for centuries and make their benefits available for use in modern lifestyles. A press release from the company said Mr. Adelman is committed to providing the finest certified organic superfoods, and to providing an inspiring work environment for employees to learn, contribute, grow and have fun. The company sources products that are sustainably harvested and is dedicated to running an eco-friendly health food business.
 
“We were the first to bring a large group of global organic superfoods to market as a full line,” said Mr. Adelman. “There are competitors out there, but no one has focused on superfoods as a category and branding concept to the degree that we have.”
 
Navitas Naturals products are certified organic, kosher, non-GMO and gluten-free. The company is committed to food safety and uses methods such as freeze-drying and low temperature processing to ensure maximum nutrition and flavor. “Navitas stands out from the crowd because we don’t use traditional industrial food processing techniques,” added Mr. Adelman. “We simply offer pure whole foods that are not compromised by high heat, additives, fillers or preservatives."
