Today, GNC is capitalizing on significant growth opportunities in the health and wellness space by continuously putting themselves where consumers are, from improved store experiences to new omnichannel offerings.  

"Communication is a key component of success in any organization, and as we continued to roll out initiatives, we relied heavily on OPSCENTER to help us disseminate the information to stores and field leaders. With the help of OPSCENTER, we have a tool that allows us to target specific stores for communications and give field leaders visibility into where they need to focus or follow up," said Nate Frazier, EVP, Chief Operating Officer at GNC. "Today, we are a stronger and more nimble business and have the right strategies in place in order to thrive in a category that is experiencing explosive growth. Stores remain a key component of GNC's business strategy and store coaches are one of our greatest assets. The tailored recommendations they provide for consumers to meet their wellness goals are the reason that people choose to shop GNC time and time again, and that is why we continue to invest in them and the technologies they use."
