Formulated with Futurelife’s unique core ingredient SmartFood, SmartBars offer the quality nutrition which is synonymous with the FutureLife brand. SmartBars offer a new dimension of convenience for consumers, and will appeal particularly to those who have busy lifestyles, are physically active, and eat on-the-go.

We are therefore very excited about the launch of this new range, which will give our consumers even more choice.
