Yeman Crippa named Cetilar® Nutrition ambassador
The Italian middle-distance runner and marathoner will be supported by the product line dedicated to nutrition and performance enhancement on his journey towards Los Angeles 2028
Pharmanutra announces that it has entered into a sports partnership agreement with Italian middle-distance runner and marathoner Yeman Crippa, 30, a leading athlete of the Italian National Athletics Team and a member of Fiamme Oro.
For the 2026–2028 three-year period, Crippa will therefore serve as a Cetilar® Nutrition Ambassador. Launched in 2023, Cetilar® Nutrition is the product line dedicated to nutrition and performance enhancement for competitive athletes. The partnership will accompany Crippa on a journey whose primary goal is the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic Games, which would mark his third Olympic appearance following Tokyo and Paris.
This valuable collaboration further strengthens the Pharmanutra Group’s strategy in professional sport, specifically in the areas of advanced sports nutrition, scientific research and performance support, contributing to the development and refinement of the company’s proprietary patented formulations that are driving the success of Cetilar® Nutrition products.
The agreement with Yeman Crippa – who has won three gold medals and two bronze medals at European level during his career, in addition to setting five Italian records that remain unbeaten to date – is based on constant, direct dialogue between athlete and company. This represents a valuable source of insights in the extremely demanding context of long- and middle-distance running.
Roberto Lacorte, Vice Chairman and CEO of Pharmanutra S.p.A., comments: “We are truly delighted to welcome an athlete like Yeman Crippa among the Ambassadors of our Cetilar® Nutrition brand, a product line that is becoming increasingly widespread and appreciated among athletes. For Pharmanutra, being able to engage directly with athletes like Yeman is essential. He is a dedicated young man whose strengths lie in commitment, sacrifice and resilience. A versatile and talented athlete, capable of competing successfully from middle-distance events to the marathon, and I am certain that together we will achieve great things.”
Yeman Crippa comments: “Every season brings different challenges, and facing them requires attention to every detail, including nutrition. With Cetilar® Nutrition, I have found a partner that truly supports my training journey, day after day, towards a clear goal: Los Angeles 2028.”
