Eric Bakker from Nutri Search is with NTPagesTV's roving reporter Kat Tate, who is learning about the range of high-grade nutritional products on the stand. These are wholesale products intended for practitioners.
The following is the written transcription of the interview.
Natural Therapy Pages: I'm Kat from NTPagesTV, and I'm here with Eric from Nutri Search. How are you, Eric?
Eric Bakker: Hello, very good. Thanks, Kat.
NTP: How's the expo going for you?
EB: We've had a great turnout today. It's been awesome. Lots of good enquiries, lots of practitioners interested in what we do.
NTP: Good to hear. Tell me about your company and what you do.
EB: Okay. I'm the technical director for a company called Nutri Search. We're New Zealand-based, also our distribution company, and we have several agencies. We deal with Doctor Wilson's Future Formulations. We deal with my own naturopathy range, and we deal with Douglas Laboratories here.
NTP: And what are the benefits of those products?
EB: Well, the benefits are, we're looking at very high-grade, high-spec products. So, these are not retail. They're made with excellent raw materials, very high level of finish by very highly reputable companies. So, the difference probably is it really results in practitioners to get the outcomes of these products.
NTP: Okay, and what kind of practitioners would come to you for these products?
EB: We see integrative medicine doctors, we see naturopaths, chiropractors, all people in nutritional medicine.
NTP: Wonderful, and where can we get the products from?
EB: You can get the products from Wallace Nutrition in New Zealand. And we've been working for two years in Australia now, so we sell quite a lot of products directly to patients instead of practitioners. A key thing with Nutri Search in New Zealand is, we can ship products which are non-TGA. We can ship direct to the patient. So, our products, like the glandular product here, which obviously is not TGA, we ship straight over here. That's quite good.
NTP: Wonderful, and have you got a website?
EB: We have. We've got one website called adrenalfatigue.co.nz.
NTP: Okay, thanks Eric.
EB: Thanks, Kat.
NTP: Enjoy the expo.
EB: Thank you very much.
