Why “2161”?

The name “2161” comes from our founder’s background as a U.S. Marine Corps Machinist (MOS 2161). In the field, a machinist transforms raw metal into carefully refined parts. We apply the same principle to product formulation: we take the finest raw, natural ingredients and refine them into innovative, effective wellness solutions. It’s this blend of precision, craftsmanship, and attention to detail that sets us apart.

Our Culture

We’ve built a close-knit team guided by the ethos of caring for our own, just like in the service. Our hiring practices give preference to veterans and their families, and we prioritize partnerships that positively impact veteran and public service communities. We believe that when we fight together, we win together—and that extends to the clients and subcontractors we choose to work with.
