About Us

The Health and Wellness Community by ARC is a group of like-minded professionals across the nutrition, dietetics, food and personal consulting space that share the common goal of helping consumers live longer and healthier lives. ARC (The Association of Retail and Consumer Professionals) is the master association and parent company for not only the Health and Wellness Community but also the Space Planning Community (SPACE) and both the Category Management Association (CMA) and Shopper Insights Management Association (SIMA).

The mission of the Health & Wellness Community is to leverage shared experiences and knowledge to better promote the right products to the right consumers. The nutritional landscape is ever evolving, and health and wellness professionals must stay up to date on new product introductions, food studies and other research, industry regulations and more to best serve their consumers and clients’ needs. From product deep dives to industry hot topics like the “Food as Medicine” movement, this community has what you need to serve consumers more effectively.
