About Mannatech

Patents on Mannatech's glyconutrient blend have already been issued in Australia, New Zealand, the European Union, Singapore, and South Africa. Mannatech products can play an integral role in wellness programs and a complementary role in traditional medicine. From just two products, the line has grown to more than two dozen supplements and topicals.

Spring-boarding from first year sales of $8 million, Mannatech has now exceeded $900 million in cumulative sales with operations in the United States, Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom and Japan. Spurred by baby boomers' purchases, which represent the most affluent and largest consumer group in the U.S., the market for functional foods and nutraceuticals has been projected to reach $250 billion. Mannatech products, which support cell-to-cell communication and the immune system, have the potential to help people maintain optimal health.

The Mannatech business model utilizes direct sales, which allows for the consumer to receive one-to-one information. Mannatech is a member of the Direct Selling Association (DSA), the national trade association of the leading firms that manufacture and distribute goods and services sold directly to consumers.

The cornerstone of the DSA's commitment to ethical business practices and consumer service is its Code of Ethics. Every member company pledges to abide by the code's standards and procedures as a condition of admission and continuing membership in the association. It ensures that member companies will make no statements or promises that might mislead either consumers or prospective sales people. Pyramid schemes are illegal and companies operating pyramids are not permitted to be members of the DSA.

Mannatech has about 185,000 active Independent Associates. Since its inception Mannatech has paid out $365 million in Associate commissions. The company provides numerous direct sales tools, including catalogs and Internet support, for their Independent Associates. Mannatech employs 250 people in the U.S. who provide customer service, distribution and Web support. The company incorporates a network marketing form of compensation as the best way to reward the individuals who bring this new type of glyconutritional supplements to market.

Mannatech emphasizes customer service and satisfaction. The average hold-time for customers is 30 seconds. Last year the U.S. distribution facility more than doubled the efficiency of its shipping operations and achieved a nearly perfect order accuracy fill-rate of 99.76%.

Wellness Industry embarking on a powerful new phase of devlopment

In recent years, people have become increasingly aware of alternatives to conventional Western medicine. As the Baby Boomers (people born between 1946 and 1964 in the post WWII baby boom and who presently account for 31% of the American population) move into their 50s and 60s, they want more than the absence of disease. Their desire to continue feeling and looking well has set the stage for a huge surge in the wellness industry. But that's not allgeneration-X adults are looking to optimal health more than any young generation before. This is not just a US phenomenon! Around the globe, health products are exploding and consumers are demanding cost effective health solutions!

Mannatech provides the right tools: on-line shoping, web-hosting and training

Mannatech recognized the importance of e-commerce early and invested in building a highly functional web site to empower its global sales team of Associates with the latest electronic tools.

Finally, as generations age and enjoy greater earnings, they are increasingly interested in products, services and activities that they associate with achieving optimal health and wellness. In particular the "baby-boomers" generation, born between 1946 and 1964, comprises some 31% of the United States economy and consume some 50% of its Gross National Product.
