The Dietary Supplement Consulting Group has launched several new services to support the dietary supplement and natural products industry. The new services include purchasing support, product development and quality control services. These new services are important, the company says, be­cause many companies are choosing to outsource for various reasons including reducing overhead costs, to aiding overburdened purchasing departments and researching new or unusual products. Outsourcing these services allows manufacturing and marketing companies to utilize experienced in­dustry professionals to save money while managing product quality.
