Own a SuppLife in Charlotte, NC? We’re Looking for Owners

SuppLife is exploring growth in the Southeast, and we’re looking for owners in Charlotte. Here’s why the Charlotte market interests us, how a SuppLife supplement store and shake bar fits, and how to start a conversation.

The Charlotte market

Charlotte is North Carolina’s largest city and one of the major financial centers in the U.S., with a large banking and corporate workforce. The metro area spans both North and South Carolina and has added hundreds of thousands of residents since 2020, according to Census estimates. Neighborhoods like South End, Plaza Midwood, and NoDa have grown into walkable, active districts.

By the numbers: the U.S. Census Bureau estimates Charlotte’s population at 943,476 in 2024, up 7.9% from its 2020 estimates base. The wider Charlotte-Concord-Gastonia metro area was estimated at 2,883,370 residents in 2024, a change of +8.4% since 2020.
