Zija International, founded by Kenneth Brailsford, recently received recognition as
the fastest growing company in the state of Utah.
Utah Business Magazine, one of the top business magazines in Utah, awarded Zija as the #1 fastest-growing company in 2014 for
its year-over-year growth during a recent luncheon.
Utah Business Magazine
recognizes the 50 fastest growing businesses annually through its yearly Utah
Business Fast 50 Program. The magazine recognizes businesses for their percentage of
growth year-over-year and the ability to adapt to a changing business
environment, the ability to reach new customers and the ability to improve
their products from year to year.
Inc. Magazinex, Direct Selling News and Utah Valley Magazine are just a few of
the other independent publications that have also recently recognized Zija
International as one of the fastest growing companies in the state and nation.
“Our goal has always been to be a billion-dollar brand in
our industry and we’ve worked very hard to set the foundation for that to happen,”
Zija International CEO Rodney Larsen said.
Zija International, a privately held and privately funded
business, develops natural nutrition and
fitness products offered through independent distributors in more than 50 countries.
Zija has seen consistent growth every year since it was founded more than seven
years ago.
As part of its continued growth, Zija International will be
launching two new divisions this month – Ripstix Fitness Supplements and Améo Essential Oils – to go alongside its original Zija Core Nutritional division.
With corporate offices located in Lehi
and more than 4 million sq. ft. of debt-free state-of-the-art warehouse,
shipping and manufacturing facilities located in Utah County, Zija International
employs more than 200 individuals and has the capacity to grow to more than two
billion dollars in annual sales.
