ESN Designer Whey Protein

ESN (Elite Sports Nutrients) is a premium German fitness nutrition brand that has become one of the most recognizable names in the European sports supplement industry. Founded in 2005, the brand focuses on high-quality manufacturing standards, particularly for its flagship protein powders like Designer Whey and Isoclear.

The brand is owned and operated by Fitmart GmbH & Co. KG, which maintains its headquarters and state-of-the-art production facilities in Elmshorn, Germany. In 2023, the brand's parent company, The Quality Group, became a primary focus for international investors. The group is currently under the majority ownership of CVC Capital Partners, a leading global private equity firm. This partnership has helped transition ESN from a local German favorite into a major international player in the health and wellness sector, while maintaining its reputation for products 'Made in Germany.'
