July -Direct Channels Report
Like retail, the direct-to-consumer sales channels in the U.S. nutrition industry are being affected by the troubled economy, and face a rapidly changing business and regulatory landscape. Though some were hit harder than others, every nutrition industry sales channel tracked by Nutrition Business Journal experienced slower sales growth in 2008 and the same is to be expected in 2009. Despite the consistent slow down, the direct-response channels in the nutrition industry have proven to be more resilient than many other market segments and continued to deliver positive growth in a slumping economy.

September -Supplement Business Report
The Supplement Business Report is NBJ’s most well known report. The 2009 report includes an overview analysis of the U.S. nutrition industry as well as detailed coverage of the dietary supplement industry.

December -Raw Material & Ingredient Supply Report
The world is changing for companies that manufacture and supply raw materials and ingredients for the U.S. nutrition industry—and 2009 is proving to be another eventful year for the raw material & ingredient supply industry. Whether they manufacture raw materials or move ingredients into the market as brokers and distributors, supply companies face a number of opportunities and challenges created by everything from growing consumer concerns over supply safety to the continued impact of new supplement good manufacturing practices on the ingredient supply chain. Raw material suppliers also must deal with the issue of rising input costs and the effect of currency fluctuations while facing reduced or delayed purchase orders from their finished product customers.
