The Harvest Table, a South African wellness brand known for its clean-label approach, will participate in the 2026 ECRM Vitamin, Weight Management & Sports Nutrition Session, scheduled for September 14-17 in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. The company aims to demonstrate its commitment to transparency and quality in a market it says is crowded with complicated formulations and bold marketing claims.
Founded by Catherine Clark, The Harvest Table has built its reputation on products that are straightforward and free from unnecessary additives. Clark believes consumers are ready for a simpler alternative. “The wellness category has become incredibly crowded, and consumers are being asked to navigate more products and more marketing messages than ever before,” she said. “We believe the answer isn’t necessarily more ingredients or more complicated formulations. It’s creating quality products with purpose and being transparent about what’s inside them.”
The company’s product line includes Grass Fed Bovine Collagen Granules, which provide Types I and III collagen from grass-fed bovine sources, are tasteless, and dissolve instantly without added gums, fillers, preservatives, artificial flavors, or dyes. Another offering, Multi Collagen Radiance, combines Types I, III, V, and X collagen with Vitamin C, Zinc, and Cranberry for a more comprehensive formulation. For plant-based consumers, Vegan Protein offers a clean-label option free from similar additives.
Beyond its ingredient choices, The Harvest Table differentiates itself through manufacturing control. The company produces its products in-house at a custom-built facility in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. This facility passes annual Food Safety Assessment (FSA) audits, meets GMP manufacturing requirements, and is recognized as a Food Safe Facility. It also maintains Halal certification for applicable markets. “Quality isn’t something we want to add to a marketing message after a product has been developed,” said Sam Clark, CEO. “It starts with the ingredients we choose, continues through how we formulate and manufacture the product, and ultimately shows up in what the consumer receives. Maintaining that control is an important part of who we are.”
The Harvest Table has already taken steps to expand its U.S. presence, with its initial product range available on Amazon. The company’s participation in ECRM is intended to introduce its products and philosophy to the U.S. retail community. “We don’t believe consumers need more noise,” Clark said. “They need products they can understand and brands they can trust. That’s the approach that built The Harvest Table in South Africa, and it’s the same approach we’re bringing to the United States.”
