PROJECT DESCRIPTION/DESCRIPTION DU PROJET:

Humane Gains is a health and fitness nutrition supplement start-up company. We are family-owned and our mission is to help people reach their health and fitness goals while supporting and promoting the ethical treatment of animals via ethically sourced nutrition supplements. Any animal-derived ingredient that is found within our nutrition supplements will be sourced from Certified Humane farms and suppliers; our customers can rest assured we are compliant with Certified Humane standards as our products will have earned the Certified Humane logo which will proudly be displayed on our product labels and is the very foundation to our brand's existence. We are seeking eager, motivated students who align with our values for ethical nutrition, and who are excited to be a part of a start-up fitness nutrition supplement company about to make waves in the industry in a currently untapped opportunity. Our journey will involve multiple, interconnected projects with the first project focusing on market research: identifying and analyzing the competition and current trends in the industry, getting clarity on who our ideal clients are, what their pain points are, where and how we can best communicate with them, obtain details about their current buying habits and how our company can over-deliver on serving their needs on the customer journey.
