Adam Rossiter and Elliot Dawes certainly have big ambitions for their growing business BULK POWDERS – with plans to become a £100m brand by 2018.<\/p>\n

Having founded the sports nutrition business in 2006 with a mere £6,000 loan from their parents, the duo now have over 85 employees, delivered revenues of  £10.7m in 2014 and have rolled out localised websites across Europe – with another four sites on the horizon.<\/p>\n

By focusing on ensuring that all of their protein powders and related products are “best in class” – manufacturing them all in-house – Rossiter and Dawes have successfully tapped into the burgeoning sports protein market. Predominantly targeting health conscious 18 to 35 year-olds, the Colchester company has amassed a loyal customer base; it has topped 100% year-on-year growth over the last two years and its social media following stands in excess of 100,000.<\/b><\/p>\n

Dawes and Rossiter are now eyeing up expansion outside of Europe, with the US and China in their sights, and have recently moved into a 50,000 sq ft warehouse with a custom-built £700,000 production facility. Turnover is projected to hit £18m this year, taking them ever closer to becoming one of the world’s largest sports nutrition companies by 2018.<\/p>\n

2016 Update: The company now expects to turnover £25m for 2016.<\/p>\n
