Global Wealth Trade is a huge success in Africa – 1,200 people attend the Abuja summit in Nigeria.
Last year we extensively covered how Global Wealth Trade was the first MLM Company to be fully embraced by 26 countries in the Caribbean countries where traditionally the Caribbean is not known to be MLM entrepreneurial.
Ramin Mesgarlou – Founder/CEO stated:
“It was awakening to see 800+ people gather in double Decker stadiums with a dozen dignitaries, top level ministers including Governor General and Prime Ministers attending the official launch of Global Wealth Trade in their countries and give welcome speeches.
Now we see Global Wealth Trade being fully embraced by the African continent led by Nigeria, again not a traditional MLM market.
INSANE is the highest level of accolade you can receive in GWT and Africa; led by Team Nigeria has been just that –INSANE. Over 1200 people attended GWT’s first major Tour night (business presentation) in Abuja and for a new market that is just INSANE”
Ted Nuyten had the honor to cover the African MLM explosion by interviewing GWT Founder Ramin Mesgarlou.
Ramin, tell us about the massively successful Abuja summit, did you expect that type of reception for the first major event?

Investors Concerned About Recent Events, Avon Hits 52 Week Low
by Tina Williams • • 0 Comments
Shares of Avon Products Inc. ( AVP ) have lost much of its momentum and yesterday this New York-based global beauty retailer stock hit a new 52-week low of $12.45. We believe that the recently announced resignation of the company’s Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and Executive Vice President, Kimberly Ross, has made investors cautious about the company’s prospects. The resignation will take effect from Oct 2, 2014.
Ross, who joined Avon nearly three years back, proved to be an able leader as she significantly contributed toward the company’s turnaround. Management remains pleased with her work and believes that the company is well on track for the future.
Ross has been able to make significant progress in improvising Avon’s balance sheet through refinancing activities and cost cutting by slashing jobs and exiting operations in the underperforming markets. Consequently, her resignation has made investors apprehensive about the company’s future performance.
Apart from this, Avon Products remains in troubled waters due to continuous loss of active representatives, declining volume, unfavorable exchange rates and reducing margins in mature markets like North America. This has led to the company’s distressed operating results over the past few quarters. Moreover, weakness in the emerging markets, like China as well as regulatory and cash flow
