Amway began in 1959 with two young entrepreneurs in the United States. Richard DeVos and Jay Van Andel developed an innovative business plan that offered anyone the opportunity to build their own business and share in the profits of a range of exceptional products. It all began with one remarkable product - what today we call L.O.C.Multi-Purpose Cleaner, then grew into much more. The partnership between a solid business plan and high quality products saw the company become a profitable and successful global business over the years.

Today, Amway boasts over 450 quality products and millions of Independent Business Owners worldwide. We are represented in over 80 countries and territories throughout the the world. Last year alone, 3.5 million IBO's renewed their businesses. The company has a global staff of over 6,000 scientists, marketing professionals, product experts, farmers, managers and other employees.
