SAM Nutrition got its start as the main supplier of leather dyes and shoe tanning chemicals for the United States Armed Forces through Red Wing Shoes. A brand like Red Wing Shoes is known for excellence in shoe-making, so it was of utmost importance to ensure they were starting with excellent quality materials. 

The same high standards and attention to detail that led to being trusted by Red Wing Shoes has fueled the business’s exponential growth, resulting in the expansion into other sectors.  Today SAM Nutrition moves more than 2.5 million pounds of barges multiple times a year, and is now one of the premier suppliers to animal, plant, and human nutrition industries on a global level. Our global network and end-to-end logistics allow us to continue serving customers in need of dyes and leather products.
