Self-tanning company Aqua Tan, Inc., has selected Build Rehabilitation Industries—affectionately known as the organization “with a heart"— to handle order fulfillment.
Aqua Tan Inc., based in Los Angeles, CA, was founded in 2003 to create a healthy alternative to UV tanning after the founder was diagnosed with melanoma resulting from using tanning beds. Aqua Tan’s mission is to transform customers with the most natural looking tan, using the finest ingredients in the most beautiful packaging and to create awareness about the dangers of using tanning beds. Launched at the Cannes Film Festival in 2003, Aqua Tan is a favorite of celebrities and discerning clients. Named “Summer Beauty Obsession” by People Magazine, Aqua Tan’s clear and non-sticky, natural cosmeceutical ingredients are loved by men and women alike. Aqua Tan luxury self-tanning products can be found in high-end spas and boutiques and on www.aquatan.tv retailing from $40-$45.
“We manufacture our luxury self tanning skincare products here in California. We feel good about giving our order fulfillment business to a local company that employs adults with disabilities. When Logistics Depot, our warehouse and fulfillment center, suddenly closed its doors overnight we frantically searched for a new company and found Build. We turned a stressful situation into this amazing opportunity to help adults with disabilities,” said Katianna Nightingale, founder of Aqua Tan, Inc. “As a business you have choices and supporting the local community with manufacturing and fulfillment makes sense. If we can help people with special needs as part of our business model that’s even better.”
