Unfabled hits Sainsbury's shelves

Unfabled, the UK women's health brand founded by Hannah Samano, has entered grocery retail for the first time with a launch into 61 Sainsbury's stores nationwide.

Join European founders, operators, and investors who read The Checkout every week.

The five-product range hit shelves on 20 May as part of the supermarket's 'New & Trending Brands' section, a fixture Sainsbury's has built to showcase brands tracking emerging consumer demand.

What's Unfabled offers

Unfabled's lineup includes Collagen Gummies, Ashwagandha Gummies, Magnesium Superblend, Apple Cider Vinegar Gummies and Debloat Superblend.

From specialist to supermarket

The Sainsbury's deal caps a rapid retail run. In the past eight months, Unfabled has rolled into 737 Boots UK stores, Boots.com and Holland & Barrett online.

The thesis behind the push is one the brand has been consistent about: women's health belongs in the weekly shop.

"Products once deemed niche are becoming part of everyday routines," said Hannah Samano, founder and CEO of Unfabled. "Women's health is moving from the sidelines into the mainstream — and retail is starting to reflect that."
