The global nutritional company was also named to the Top 20 list of direct selling companies by the DSA, based on 2015 U.S. net sales. Over the last few years, USANA has seen amazing global financial growth, with the company recently reporting its 13th consecutive year of record sales and earnings. Net sales for 2015 increased by an exceptional16.2 percent to a record $918.5 million. USANA has also been named to the Top 20 list in 2013 and 2014 and looks to become a mainstay on the DSA Top 20 list in the future.
These two awards given by an internationally recognized industry association bolster the reputation of USANA as a global leader in multi-level marketing. They speak well of the years of hard work and entrepreneurial foresight to establish and sustain a highly competitive yet well-managed multinational organization.
Within the company, USANA Philippines’s customer service team proudly made history as it received the first-ever International Contact Center of the Year award from Robby Gold, executive director of customer service. The award, established only this 2016, was based on industry standards of service levels and abandoned percent rates, and encompasses the call center, order desks and pick-up/will-call desks.
Youth Empowerment for a Better Future
After a year of regular Saturday tutorials and a feeding program conducted by volunteers of USANA True Health Foundation and Cornerstone Foundation in Paranaque City, more than 300 primary and secondary pupils marched on Moving Up Day, the graduation day of Cornerstone scholars. The event marked the fruition of the two foundations’ continuing vision to sustain the youth with good health so they can maximize their potentials. It’s also a testament that quality education can be made accessible to the poorer segments of society.

In 2016, two new products were introduced to the market in response to challenges in today’s changing lifestyle. USANA Probiotic is a food supplement that supports digestive health while Proglucamune boosts the immune system.
USANA Probiotic features a unique 50/50 mixture of two strains of probiotic bacteria that support a natural balance of beneficial microflora in the gut. In addition, the probiotic bacterial strains in USANA Probiotic also help promote and sustain a healthy immune system through improved gut health. More immune cells are concentrated in the gut than in any other region of the body, and substantial amount of specific probiotics can strengthen the body’s natural defenses by modulating the cellular immune response. A healthier digestion leads to productivity and helps people get more out of life.
Scientifically developed for the immune system, USANA Proglucamune is packed with four immune-boosting ingredients, namely Shitake Mushroom, Reishi Mushroom, Baker’s Yeast, and Zinc. It combines ancient wisdom with modern science so immune cells work faster and more efficiently.
USANA makes a difference by being a world leader in scientifically developed health products. Its Probiotic and Proglucamune are the newest health supplements to come from a long line of quality products that incorporate the results of in-depth scientific studies and produced though state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities in the USA.
