The best of the best: The Natural Products Expo East 2017 NEXTY Award winners

The competition was steep, but 21 products came out on top. The New Hope Network staff delivered the coveted NEXTY Awards to the winners' booths on the show floor of Natural Products Expo East 2017 on Friday, Sept. 15. 

Selected from 66 finalists across 21 categories, these winners were decided in a two-tier judging process that took place at New Hope Network in the months prior to Expo East by New Hope staff and a panel of industry judges. Editors' Choice awards were also given to five impressive companies that New Hope editors and trend researchers spotted at the show. Those were awarded on the final day, Saturday, Sept. 16.
