Australian supplement store shelves stocked with protein powders, vitamins, and nutrition products

Top Supplement Stores in Australia You Can Trust

By Evelyn Faye Nutrition

When you're seeking high-quality vitamins, sports nutrition, herbal supplements or wellness essentials, where you buy matters just as much as what you buy. In Australia, not all supplement retailers are created equal, trust, product integrity, customer service, and knowledge all count.

At Evelyn Faye, we pride ourselves on being among Australia’s longest-standing, expert-staffed supplement outlets. (We’ve served customers since 1974 with staff qualified as naturopaths, sports nutritionists and herbalists.)

But we also know there are other reputable players around the country. In this post, you’ll find top supplement stores in Australia you can trust, whether you prefer to shop locally, in person, or online.

What Makes a Supplement Store Truly Trustworthy?

Before jumping into names, here are key criteria we use to assess trustworthiness. Use these as your checklist when shopping too:

Transparency of ingredients & labelling — Good retailers clearly list what’s inside (dosage, form, additives).

  • Third-party testing, certifications & Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) — Products that undergo independent testing reduce risk of contamination.
  • Qualified staff and expert advice — Staff who truly understand supplementation (rather than sales reps) help you choose what’s safe and effective.
  • Strong customer feedback / reviews — Reputation matters; consistent positive feedback is a good indicator.
  • Reliability of supply and delivery — Regular stock, clear shipping policies, and good customer service are essential.
  • Local regulatory compliance — In Australia, supplements should align with Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) or other local rules.

We believe these factors are as important as the product itself.

6 Supplement Stores in Australia You Can Rely On

Here are six standout names in Australia, each with strengths, specialties, and a track record of trust.

Store

Why It Stands Out

What to Watch / Specialty

Evelyn Faye Nutrition

One of Melbourne’s original health food & supplement retailers. Staffed by qualified health professionals. We've built long relationships with local and international brands. 

If you’re in Melbourne, you can shop in person (CBD / South Melbourne) or enjoy nationwide shipping.

Bulk Nutrients

Highly regarded online supplement brand & store. Known for transparent labelling and frequently ranked among top retailers in Australia. 

Watch shipping costs for remote areas; stock of niche items may vary.

Mr Supplement

Since 2004, Mr Supplement has built trust by offering a broad catalogue and consistent customer experience. 

Great for both everyday vitamins and performance nutrition.

Nutrition Warehouse

A go-to for in-store experience across major cities with helpful staff and wide product range. 

Physical stores let you test, ask questions, and compare side by side.

Australian Sports Nutrition

Specialist in performance & sporting supplements. Good reputation for serious athletes.

Best for sports-oriented formulations—may be niche for general wellness needs.

Supplement Mart

Strong online presence, wide catalogue of sport and health supplements, free shipping for larger orders. 

Best suited for those who shop online regularly.


How to Choose the Right Store for You

Here are some practical tips to match your needs with the right outlet:

  1. Proximity vs online convenience
     If you're in Melbourne or near a major city, visiting stores like Evelyn Faye or Nutrition Warehouse lets you see, ask, and test before purchase. Otherwise, a reliable online store with good customer service is key.
  2. Match your goal to specialization
     For general wellness, vitamin ranges, herbs, Evelyn Faye or Nutrition Warehouse are great. For performance / sports supplements, stores like Australian Sports Nutrition or Bulk Nutrients may offer more depth.
  3. Check return and authenticity policies
     Always read whether a store guarantees authenticity, offers returns, or handles faulty or expired stock.
  4. Use reviews and community feedback
     Look at user reviews on trusted platforms (ProductReview, consumer forums) for insights into delivery speed, packaging and support.
  5. Start small with first orders
     When trying a new retailer, order a single product first. That way any issues are low risk.

Why Evelyn Faye Still Holds Its Place

You might wonder why we include ourselves in this list, after all, humility is important, but we believe our track record speaks for itself.

  • Decades of service: Since 1974, we've been in the wellness business, evolving alongside the nutrition industry.
  • Expert staff: Every person who helps you (in store or online) is trained in naturopathy, herbalism, or sports nutrition.
  • Product breadth & brand relationships: We source both local and global top brands, negotiating deals to keep things affordable.
  • Strong reputation locally: On review platforms and in communities, many users recall helpful advice, product knowledge, and follow-up.
  • In-store + online hybrid experience: For Melbourne locals, store visits are possible; for remote customers, our online presence ensures you still get quality service.

Final Thoughts & A Few Friendly Warnings

  • No store is flawless, delivery delays, out-of-stock items, and occasional service lapses can happen.
  • Check expiry dates and packaging integrity when your order arrives.
  • Always cross-check claims against verified scientific sources. Supplements support health, they don’t replace good food, sleep, or medical care.
  • If you have underlying conditions, medications, or you're pregnant, consult a qualified practitioner before starting anything new.

Whether you're browsing Melbourne shelves or ordering online from Perth, Canberra or Darwin, this list gives you a baseline of trusted supplement stores in Australia. Use the criteria above, go slowly with new retailers, and align your choices with your goals. At Evelyn Faye, we’re always here to help you navigate, with knowledge, integrity and care.
