Our community is home to a growing hub of innovation, and one organization in the greater Charleston area is helping lead the way.

Meet Thorne: a mission-driven health and wellness company connecting the science of performance with the science of people, headquartered in Summerville.

Founded 40+ years ago as a true “thorn” in the supplement industry, the company set out to create safe, effective, science-backed solutions that healthcare practitioners and their patients could trust.

Moving its headquarters to Summerville in 2018 allowed Thorne to expand manufacturing and evolve into a direct-to-consumer brand, bringing its solutions to more Charlestonians (and beyond).

Today, it’s the top clinically recommended brand by healthcare practitioners, offering nutritional supplements and innovative technology tools that support personalized health — trusted by millions of consumers and 100+ professional sports teams.

As the team grows, the people behind the science remain central to the work. Interested in getting involved? Explore career opportunities below.
