Amway smashes through $10 billion

December 21st, 2011 | Posted in Amway News, Market News

I’ve received a lot of queries about this and I’ve confirmed from reliable sources that Amway exceeded $10.2 billion in global sales for the 2010/2011 IBO financial year. Note that this is not the official 2011 sales figures – which should be self-evident since the year isn’t finished yet! In 1999/2000 Amway/Alticor switched to reporting [...]

October 6th, 2011 | Posted in Amway India, Shyam Sundar

For some years now I’ve been trying to write a post about the trials and tribulations of Amway India, and I never quite manage to get one done. It’s a struggle  just to sort through the bizarre allegations, unreadable and confusing legalize, and the truly bizarre misinformation of Amway’s critics. Anyway, I’m trying again. As [...]
