Our company is driven by loyal team members who stand for honesty, who work with great enthusiasm, and who lead with a sincere desire to leave a personal legacy.
Listed below are a few significant milestones Synergy WorldWide achieved during the first quarter.
2011: Q1 Report
Nature’s Sunshine has recently released its first quarter operating results. Within this report you’ll find honest numbers that reflect the true state of the company. These figures give me great confidence that, as a company, we are moving in the right direction. Allow me to highlight a few statistics that compare Q1 of 2011 to the same quarter just a year ago:
• Worldwide net sales increased from $13.9 million to $20.7 million – an increase of 42.8%
• Significant growth in the United States, Korea, and Europe continues to fuel company success
• All other international markets continue to grow and experience renewed excitement
I congratulate all of you for your tremendous efforts. It is by your diligence in presenting Synergy products and business opportunity that our numbers continue to reach new levels.
