Who We Are
Science In Sport Group is a world leader in sports and performance nutrition. We have two highly regarded brands: SiS, which combines science and innovation to provide optimal performance nutritional solutions for professional athletes and active‑lifestyle communities, and PhD Nutrition, a premium active‑nutrition brand that has spent over 20 years of R&D designing products to maximise performance inside and outside the gym. Our brands are sold through phd.com and scienceinsport.com, third‑party online marketplaces such as Amazon, and extensive domestic and international retail distribution.
We support more than 320 professional teams worldwide across Football, Rugby, Cycling, Athletics, Basketball, Netball and Swimming, and have ambassadors such as former track cyclist Sir Chris Hoy and Eilish McColgan. In 2022 we opened a state‑of‑the‑art 160,000-square‑foot manufacturing and logistics facility in Blackburn, Lancashire, giving us a significant advantage in cost and customer response time. Science In Sport is the nutrition partner of elite teams including Tottenham Hotspur, Saracens Rugby, British Triathlon, Aquatics GB, British Cycling, England Netball and Loughborough Sports, and the official energy gel provider of RunThrough and nutrition partner of Ultra X.
