“This is the complete business based here in Hull. We have our manufacturing, our sales and marketing, our products are developed here and we are also bringing a brand new global innovation centre here.” Tim Perman, Managing Director, Seven Seas.
Having started out as a small local co-operative, established by a group of Hull trawler owners who invested in the commercial production of Cod Liver Oil, Seven Seas has now grown into a major international healthcare company with an extensive product portfolio, employing over 400 people in the UK.
Seven Seas Cod Liver Oil is the most widely used health supplement in the UK with the company's branded products available in over 90 countries across the globe. Recognised as VMS Market leaders in Ireland, the Middle East, Africa, the Caribbean and the Far East, Seven Seas also pioneered the first ever soft gelatin capsules which are now in widespread use across the world. With a broad range of minerals, vitamins, health supplements, over-the counter medicines and herbal remedies, innovative products and processes has enabled Seven Seas to maintain their position at the forefront of the UK healthcare market.
Seven Seas has built its reputation as one of the most trusted names in healthcare, on its range of products and Brands, which provide "Good Health Naturally". JointCare for aches and pains and Multibionta, a multivitamin with probiotic, are two dynamic brands launched in the last few years, which have quickly become market leaders in their own right.
Having made strategic alliances and acquisitions over the years, such as Haliborange - the leading brand of children's vitamins and mineral supplements, Seven Seas currently operate one of the most technologically advanced production facilities in the world. More recently, the already successful company has flourished having joined forces with German Pharmaceutical giant, Merck KGaA, as its parent company in 1996.
