GNC, whose full name is GNC Holdings Inc., is an American company that makes and sells nutrition and health products, such as energy products, diet products, sports nutrition, herbs, supplements, vitamins, and a number of other things. The company has been around since the 1930s, which makes GNC one of the oldest health companies in the United States. On our GNC Near Me page, you can find out where the company’s stores are and when they’re open. You can also get coupons for great deals.

David Shakarian opened the first GNC health food store in 1935, but it was called “Lackzoom” back then. It was in the center of Pittsburgh, but in the beginning, it didn’t make much money. Shakarian, on the other hand, opened another store in Pittsburgh just 6 months later. Yet, the Ohio River flood a year later destroyed both of these stores. David Shakarian turned his business into a corporation right before the flood. Shakarian was able to rebuild those stores, even though that made the future of the whole business uncertain. By 1941, he had even opened five more shops.

During World War II, when gas was hard to come by, GNC customers got their orders through the mail. When the health food craze hit in the 1960s, Shakarian’s business started to do well. It was then that the first GNC store outside of Pittsburgh opened. Before expanding beyond Pittsburgh, Shakariah renamed all of its stores GNC, which stood for “General Nutrition Center.” The founder of the chain ran it until he died in the middle of the 1980s.

Shakariah’s company went public on the NYSE right before he died. Shakariah’s family decided to hire a CEO and sell the company right after he died. So, at the end of the 1980s, GNC was sold to the investment fund The Thomas Lee Company. At different times, Royal Dutch Numico, Apollo Management, the Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan, and Ares Management were in charge of the company. At the moment, the last two are still in charge of the business. More than 13,800 people work for GNC, and the company has more than 7,300 stores.

Most of the time, GNC stores sell health and beauty products, natural remedies, vitamins, nutritional supplements, products for bodybuilding, and products for losing weight. There are a number of GNC stores in shopping malls. Also, GNC products are sold through the portal www.drugstore.com/.
