Is Innovapharm Going Away?

I see a ton of out of stocks at various retailers and the official website has outdated Promos only. Any insiders here know what’s going on?

No, they are not.

Innovapharm has always focused primarily on brick and mortars. They do sell to retailers that put their products online, but its not their main focus.

In cases like that, online retailers usually don't focus on pushing them very hard - which would explain the outdated promos.

They may be struggling with out of stocks, like most brands are right now.

I see. I’m always afraid of walking into a brick and mortar store due to upselling pressures. Especially I can see employees standing at the counter waiting to pounce.

I can understand that. It really depends on the store.

I owned a brick and mortar for years that closed bc of Covid. My employees were never that way, but I never gave them spiff's or incentives to push any certain brands. Plus, I had the same knowledgeable staff for years.

I've definitely been in stores like you're talking about though.
