  • Nu Skin Faces Pyramid-Scheme Allegations in China
    Center for Ethical Organizational Cultures Auburn University http://harbert.auburn.edu Nu Skin Faces Pyramid-Scheme Allegations in China INTRODUCTION Nu Skin Enterprises, Inc. has come far in its nearly 30-year history. Founded in Provo, Utah, in the United States, the company is based upon a multilevel marketing direct-selling model that employs independent contractors to sell personal care products and dietary supplements. The firm has gone on to become the seventh largest direct seller in the world, with 2013 revenue of over $4 billion. It has paid out more than $10 billion in commissions and sales incentives. Nu Skin has been recognized throughout the years for its innovative products and social responsibility initiatives, but it h as also faced some ethical and legal challenges. Today Nu Skin has a widespread global reach, operating in 53 international markets on five continents. In particular, China has become a lucrative market for Nu Skin’s direct-selling operations. Nu Skin’s Chinese sales force consists of more than 400,000 sales representatives and sales in China account for approximately 30 percent of Nu Skin’s revenue. Nu Skin has performed so well in China and other countries that CEO M. Truman Hunt has announced the company’s intention to increase its revenues to $10 billion by 2020. China is a critical market for reaching this goal. Despite Nu Skin’s rapid growth and success, allegations arose in China that could prove challenging to the company’s sales objectives in that country. Chinese newspapers accused Nu Skin sales representatives of operating an illegal pyramid scheme in China, an accusation that Nu Skin vehemently denied.
