Direct selling giant Amway reached $1 billion in monthly sales during June, breaking the billion dollar mark in a single month for the first time in the company’s 52-year history.

Overall, sales are up across the Amway footprint, which spans more than 80 countries and territories. Sales increased in nine of the company’s top 10 markets in June. Amway operations in China, Korea, India, Thailand, Taiwan, and Ukraine recorded double-digit growth during that same time period.


Successful product promotions, increase in brand awareness through global marketing campaigns and pricing adjustments are the primary drivers attributed to robust sales results, the company said.

“We are experiencing an intense period of growth, and with fluctuations that normally occur in our sales cycle, we expect that momentum to continue,” said Bill Payne, executive vice president and chief of staff at Amway. “We’re excited because year-over-year sales increases indicate that our long-term Growth Through Innovation strategy is clearly paying off. We’re being smarter about how we work and where we focus our efforts. Trends indicate we could have another record-breaking year.”

China, the company’s largest market, had record sales in June. In addition, a strong promotion of eSpring water treatment systems in Korea and nutrition product promotions in Russia significantly increased sales. North America, Amway’s home market, is growing and well positioned to continue that trend, driven by numerous, innovative distributor and consumer programs.
