Amway/Alticor 2009 sales data

[ibofightback]

Corp sales data is normally out by now, running a bit late this year. Any speculations as to what they will be?

We already know Amway India is up 25%.
Mid year Amway Russia was aiming to repeat 2008 sales - so no major growth there.
Amway Colombia was fastest growing at a crazy 115%

Can Amway China repeat 28% growth from 2008?

Currency fluctuations are going to make it a pain in the a** to do meaningful year-to-year comparisons as the US dollar was significantly stronger in 2009 compared to 2008, meaning sales could be up significantly but US dollar reporting down!

And is non-Amway revenue, such as eCoupled licencing and Gurwitch/Laura Mercer etc etc, going to become a more and more important factor in Alticor revenues?

Inquiring minds need (want) to know ......

And since Ireland is propping up the UK/ROI market we can add our bit to the Amway bank

We were told by Amway Slovenia, that Amway did 5% growth last year on global scale

[ibofightback]

thanks, that comes to about US$8.62 billion

I'm guess that's a USD->USD growth, not a weighted average local currency growth.

Amway India full year revenue is INR 1407 Crores = INR 14.07 billion up from last year's figure INR 1128 Crores = INR 11.28 Billion [Take $ 1 = INR 46 and you can do the math for the USD figures].

Nutrilite also becomes the largest selling brand for Health and Nutrition products within India. In fact, I HEARD that in 2008 just the Nutrilite Protein Powder itself has done a business close to INR 300+ Crores = INR 3+ Billion.
