Stockton Road Capital, a company founded in 1988 by David Jenkins, has a rich history of developing and producing category-creating protein products. Based in Carlsbad, California, the company has been responsible for a variety of innovative protein-based products, which have made a significant impact on the market. Over the years, Stockton Road Capital has evolved, selling off parts of their business to other entities, but they continue to hold a strong presence in the manufacturing industry, with a focus on protein products.
One of Stockton Road Capital's earliest products was ProOptibol, the first sports recovery optimizer. As the company continued to grow and develop new products, they introduced Designer Whey®, which became America's #1 Protein – Protein Powder, Bars and Shakes. They also created Detour® Protein Bars, the first protein candy bar, as well as protein powders and bars for the Biggest Loser® brand. Aria® Women's Protein was another product developed by the company, catering specifically to the nutritional needs of women.
In 2006, Stockton Road Capital sold the Detour® Protein Bar business and factory to Forward Foods, LLC, an Emigrant Capital portfolio company. This move allowed the company to focus on other areas of their protein product line. In April 2011, the Designer Whey® protein assets were acquired by Designer Protein, LLC, a private equity entity composed of Stockton Road Capital, Garmark Partners, and Northwood Ventures.
Throughout its history, Stockton Road Capital has been dedicated to research and development, resulting in the ownership of 6 U.S. patents and international patents in 38 countries. These patents cover an extremely broad spectrum of sparkling protein products, including XAPP®, the world's first carbonated protein drink. Stockton Road Capital is the proud owner of the only clear, refreshing, sparkling protein drink patents in the world.
The company operates out of PO Box 690, Carlsbad, California 92018, US, and continues to make strides in the manufacturing industry. For more information about Stockton Road Capital and their innovative protein products, you can visit their website at http://www.nextproteins.com.
