Supplement Certified Ltd are excited to announce Tom Hennessy as Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Director for the company. The board voted unanimously to appoint Tom at a meeting in January. As CEO, Tom brings a wealth of experience to the role having served in a number of senior positions over the past 25 years.  Tom will be responsible for all aspects of the strategic growth and development of the company.

A Waterford native, Tom has spent the last 30 years living and working in the United States where he owned and managed a number of businesses predominantly in the health care sector.  Tom was also an Adjunct Professor teaching entrepreneurship to graduate students at the world-renowned Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland. Most recently, Tom was president of his own health care consulting business where he advised the United States Government on requests from states for federal funds related to designing, developing, and maintaining large IT systems tied to federal social service programs.

“I am excited to be joining the Supplement Certified team. I believe Supplement Certified has a strong business model combined with a talented and dedicated team both on the science and management sides of the business. The opportunity for this business to impact people lives positively is tremendous through awareness and education on supplements.”

Company Founder and Lead Scientific Officer, Professor John Nolan, said “The board of Supplement Certified is very excited to have Tom Hennessy as CEO and Tom will be instrumental to bringing this unique service to organisations working in the food supplement industry globally”. Professor Nolan emphasized the value of the service by stating, “it is clear that the mission of Supplement Certified is to protect the consumer from food supplements that are not meeting label claim, in a way that quality can be assured, and the consumer can benefit. This is now exceptionally important because peer-reviewed studies confirm that when specific targeted nutrients such as carotenoids and omega-3 fatty acids are provided in supplement form, patients can reduce their risk of age-related diseases such AMD and Alzheimer’s disease. Given that Supplement Certified has enormous global reach and relevance, the Supplement Certified establishment will require high level leadership into the future.”

Supplement Certified is an independent, third-party quality assurance company created by scientists, for the people, committed to setting the standard for quality in the supplement industry by helping companies attain, and maintain, the highest standards. The Supplement Certified stamp of approval assures consumers that the supplements they buy contain the exact nutrients listed on the label and in the quantities specified.
