LANDING, NJ, March 26, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Tenshi Kaizen Private, Ltd. (Tenshi), Bengaluru, India, and DolCas Biotech, LLC (DolCas) announce the signing of an agreement for the creation of a joint-venture company. The joint venture between Tenshi, a technology-focused specialty pharmaceutical company, and DolCas, a leading US-based strategic marketing and distribution firm specializing in branded nutraceutical ingredients, will be incorporated under the name of its signatories, DolCas-Tenshi Bioceuticals, Inc.

DolCas-Tenshi Bioceuticals (DTB) will focus exclusively on the research, development, and commercialization of novel nutraceutical lines for key global markets, including the US, Canada, Europe, and Japan. The two partners have equal interest and headquarters will be based in New Jersey.

According to industry Reports¹, the global nutraceutical market is projected to reach $578 billion by 2025, driven predominantly by growing consumer awareness of the value of nutraceuticals in conjunction with the steady innovation of high-performance natural ingredients.

"With DolCas' exemplary go-to-market abilities, the synergies of the two partners will accelerate the development of, and accessibility to, affordable, high quality nutraceuticals," notes Iyer. "We are on course with the launch of our first two products at VitaFoods 2019 in May."

The new company will operate with full vertical integration to ensure maximum transparency for our clients and consumers. Borrowing from pharma's highly standardized manufacturing processes and strict regulatory guidelines and expectations, I see this venture contributing to the dietary supplement landscape in a distinctive way."
