Iovate Health Sciences International, Inc. announced that it has reached a definitive agreement to receive a majority equity investment from Shenzhen-listed Xiwang Foodstuffs Co., Ltd.

The Iovate Executive Team states, “Over the last 20 years, our teams at Iovate have built a business that has given our brands an industry-leading position in North America and throughout the world.
