Sun City West, AZ — May 29, 2026 — The National Animal Supplement Council (NASC) is pleased to announce the election of Nich Wilson, president of KND Labs, to its board of directors. Wilson is a seasoned leader whose expertise lies in developing partnerships, creating new opportunities, and bringing people together to achieve shared goals.

Wilson thrives when working with teams to navigate challenges and identify practical solutions. He especially enjoys working in the animal health and human nutrition areas of KND’s business, where he finds the passion and innovation of both sectors inspiring. Outside of work, Wilson enjoys spending time with his wife and their two children. He has a deep love of the outdoors, whether it’s camping, fishing, or skiing, and is just as likely to be on a mountain slope as around a campfire with his family.

“Nich brings a thoughtful and congenial leadership style to the NASC Board of Directors and a genuine passion for helping our industry grow responsibly,” said Bill Bookout, NASC President. “He understands the importance of quality, innovation, and solid relationships, and we are excited to welcome Nich and look forward to the perspective and energy he will bring to our organization and membership.”

Wilson succeeds longtime board member Nick Hartog of Grand Meadows Nutritional Supplements, Inc., who is retiring from the NASC board after 25 years of dedicated service. Throughout his tenure, Hartog was a fierce advocate for improving industry standards and advancing the NASC’s mission. Hartog’s insightful leadership, valuable perspective, and unwavering commitment to NASC and the industry helped to cement a legacy that will not be forgotten.

 

“I am genuinely excited to contribute my experience, perspective, and commitment to this industry as a member of the NASC Board of Directors,” Wilson said. “My goal is to support NASC in continuing to elevate standards, strengthen its voice, and ensure it remains a leading organization for decades to come.”

Wilson’s three-year board term began upon his election in May 2026.
