Employee-Only Protein Bars

XXL Nutrition Made a Celebration Bar Exclusively for Action

Discount retailer Action is the place to find XXL Nutrition products—and several exclusives like Whey Protein, Pre-Workout, and a Pre-Workout Shot, leading XXL Nutrition to create the Celebration Bar specifically for Action and its thousands of employees. The Celebration Bar is a high-protein snack exclusively available for Action employees, featuring a rainbow sprinkle cake flavor.

At a time when protein-packed products are popping up everywhere and becoming widely available to the average consumer, this specialty protein bar stands out as a special gesture to recognize Action as one of the non-specialty retailers in the Netherlands that carry the domestic supplement giant with a favorite flavor that has become well-known in its own right, beyond just birthdays.
