Nutiva
We believe a bright future for all is rooted in healthy food.

About the Brand
It began with a man with a passion for wholesome organic foods. Our Founder John Roulac launched Nutiva with 500 hemp seed bars. Our name was also hemp-inspired: Nutiva-NUT of a Cannabis satIVA.
In 2002, Nutiva launches our first organic coconut oil product. We’ve been advocates for the nourishing, versatile properties of cold-pressed, minimally processed coconut oil ever since. Nutiva was also a key player in fighting for the legalization of hemp-based food products. We continue to advocate for your right to nutrient dense, organic foods made without chemical or GMO intervention.
We courageously challenge the status quo with fresh thinking and innovative products. We respect and honor everyone – our people, our consumers, our local and global partners and our planet.

This process is certified organic and uses absolutely no chemicals.
