Supplement Kingdom

Westfield Coomera+Palm Beach ,Gold Coast, QLD

SK nutrition has been in operation since 2012, opening our first store in Palm Beach on the Gold Coast. Our goal was to put peoples nutrition needs first and spread the knowledge and power of supplements to our local customers. This was very successful and SK nutrition became a local favorite. It became a place where you could get some good advice, very good deals, and free bottled water. As time went on our customer base grew and our mission became clearer that people need the right supplements, the right advice, and the right service to ensure they were at peak performance. Fitness and gym workouts are now a part of daily routines and SK Nutrition wants to be the partner to as many customers as possible. Many big-name stores and other independents have come into the supplement scene and unfortunately, they have failed. SK Nutrition however remained strong and increased its market share over time by ensuring its beliefs and values were at the core of its business.

  • Customers come before profits

  • Advice & water is free

  • Best prices possible

  • Treat people as friends always.

This we believe has kept us here to the point where we started to expand. SK Nutrition now services the entire country while still keeping our ideals in mind. We guarantee the best prices online and offline and ensure that all our customers are still treated like friends. We appreciate the continued support from our current customers and look forward to making new friends with our future customers.
