Thompson Nutrition Limited was established by the respected English herbalist M.Barrington Thompson, who opened New Zealand's first health shop in 1951.  Word soon spread of Barrington Thompson's effective herbal formulations, and the business has never looked back.

Today, the Thompson's brand is a market leader in New Zealand, and exports products around the globe.  More recently, the Thompson Group was established to include a number of major acquisitions - Life-Span, Australasia's largest distributor of complementary health care products, Eagle Pharmaceuticals, T P Health Ltd (Thursday Plantation), Red 8 Limited and Mediherb.  Owing to this massive growth into a truly international company, The Thompson Group has now changed its name to Integria Healthcare, to more adequately reflect the diverse portfolio of market-leading businesses within the group.
