Thought I'd start this thread here as well to give everyone a chance talk about who in the supplement industry they respect and why? this can be a list of guys past and present.I'm very interested to see how this discussion takes off.

I hope to get everyone's thoughts and views.
 
Top of my list would be:

Now Foods
Beverly International
PES
DS
True Protein

There are more but those stand out to me.
 
Man, I would feel like an Oscar winner worried I missed someone while naming people in my speech if I started this..lol.
 
Off the top of my head? Andy Haman although I'm not sure he counts as being a part of the supplement industry, however, he does rep for Dymatize and others. He helped me with my first contest prep and always brings a measure of humor to every workout.

Another would be Layne Norton. A guy who is very well educated and experience. He offers a lot of helpful tips and articles as well as clinical studies. I was most recently intrigued by his Leucine study in regards to MPS that he did.

Alan Aragon, not afraid to question things and has great knowledge as well.

SNS, a company that puts out great products that I have come to love (slight shill :p).

Many others who have a goal to succeed and then follow that up with an incredible drive, passion, unrelenting motivation and determination to make it happen regardless of obstacles and fueled by a thirst for expanding their knowledge.
 
I wasn't talking about my own place within any list. Sometimes, when you're been on one side for so long, you can forget what it's like on the "outside". That's why I visit message boards only daily now. I've been in the industry for over a decade, I've seen it all. Just interesting to hear consumers opinions on topics like this and why they believe that opinion.
 
NTBM
Marc Lobliner
Patrick Arnold
DS
Probably forgetting people but that's all I can think of now.
 
There are days when I wish I was just the mailorder guy like back in the day. You know, where I could say whatever I wanted without too much issue (I did get sued over 30x lol)

I think sometimes the less you know, the better. Ignorance really can be bliss, especially when at the end of the day the supplement industry is just another capitalism driven industry.

That being said, there's definitely some good guys out there.
 
great answers and insight here.this is exactly the type of stuff I was hoping to get.it seems the better you do in this industry the bigger the target becomes and the less things you can really speak about honestly.
 
Omega Sports
AI
Driven Sports
App Nut
Thermolife
Biotivia
Now Food
Scivation

these i tried several products from and not one let me down

companies i tried one or two only but worked great

EBF
iForce


Big companies (keeping in mind the big one all have crappy products in the list..)

ON
Dymatize
Gaspari

now would be interesting - and so not politically correct - to list
the worst companies lol
 
PES, E-Pharm, Genomyx, and Omega. Are the tops of my supplement list with Athletix and AI coming up right behind.
 
I'm gonna go with some old school companies that aren't around but were pioneers in the transdermal PH market, which allowed me to spend much of my misspent youth on AM :)

BDC -> Chemo for those who remember
Avant Labs -> Par Deus
E-Pharm/Ergopharm and Patrick Arnold
Nutraplanet -> Simply the best service and great prices
Genomyx
Anabolic Innovations
Driven Sports/Designer Supplements -> Introduced us to Superdrol
 
Whoever made Cybergenics back in the early 90's. Nice valuable lesson learned about the industry at a young age here.
