Amway Marketing Blitz Pays Off

Amway Global co-founder Rich DeVos says the direct-selling giant had a record $8.2 billion in sales in 2008.

The Grand Rapids Press reports DeVos made the comments at an event in Grand Rapids on Friday. An official company statement will be made next week.

The Ada-based company is privately owned and does not release profit amounts.

The 2008 figure represents a 15 percent rise over $7.1 billion in 2007 sales and double the $4.1 billion in sales made in 2001.
