A WORD FROM OUR REGIONAL DIRECTOR Brian O'Callaghan Regional Director, Asia Pacific It was this month just a short three years ago that Norwex launched in New Zealand. And what a successful three years our New Zealand business has had! From the get go, Norwex New Zealand has grown from strength to strength with many major milestones being achieved along the way. Month after month there have been record breaking sales and recruiting achievements. Norwex New Zealand is currently the most successful new market entry Norwex has had. This is fantastic from many perspectives. Most importantly, Safe Havens have been created in New Zealand at a higher rate than in any other country at start up. In addition we have seen the lives of people being changed more rapidly than anywhere else by the Norwex opportunity. We take this opportunity to congratulate all our Norwex New Zealand Consultants on the great strides they are making in creating Safe Havens and of course a very big Happy Birthday to Norwex New Zealand! It is great to know that we are not alone in being concerned about the well-being of our environment. April 22nd marks the international recognition of Earth Day which was first celebrated in 1970. Earth Day 2018 is centred on bringing focus to the need to end plastic pollution and of course, as we know, Norwex is also leading the way on this count. To quote the Earth Day Network on the topic of plastic pollution, they say; “From poisoning and injuring marine life to disrupting human hormones, from littering our beaches and landscapes to clogging our waste streams and landfills, the exponential growth of plastics is now threatening the survival of our planet.” The Norwex Ideology speaks directly to protecting our environment and we are continually seeking out ways to present Sustainable Solutions for a Healthy World. I would encourage you to have a read of the Norwex Purpose Booklet again and to get this booklet into the hands of your prospective Customers and Recruits as it really does speak very concisely to what we stand for at Norwex. As you do this, be encouraged, you are promoting a great cause and your Norwex business is making a difference. Do look out for communications from Norwex this month as we bring further focus to protecting our environment. I know that you all love our products and so I would encourage you to take note of our guest speaker line-up for our National Conference scheduled for the Gold Coast in August. We are pleased to share that our Global Marketing Officer, Amy
