USANA accomplishes this through their USANA Foundation and USANA Kids Eat charities where they provide food and supplies to needy children and their families.

All these things USANA believes will pave the way to success for an individual. USANA also believes in corporate social responsibility, making frequent charitable donations. After the challenging environment that 2020 presented to companies all around the world, USANA saw many of its competitors making drastic changes to remain afloat. For USANA, this meant undergoing a pivot to full remote work, acquiring and aiding in the setup of computers for those employees who did not have them. USANA also faced supply chain and manufacturing challenges but were able to mitigate most of those issues due to their already strong infrastructure. The company also brought in strict safety measures in its headquarters, implementing rigorous hygiene checks, mandatory mask use and social distancing rules. USANA was already using Good Manufacturing Practices to keep the facility clean, but went even further once the pandemic hit. From creating some of the highest quality supplements in the world that undergo rigorous onsite and third-party testing, to providing an excellent work experience for their employees and Associates, and having consistently high customer satisfaction ratings, it’s no wonder USANA is one of the most trusted providers of nutritional supplements.
