Amway India, one of the country’s leading FMCG direct-selling companies, embraced equity with International Women’s Day celebrations across the country. Aligned with the global theme of #EmbraceEquity, the company organized a series of events to celebrate ‘womanhood’ by catalyzing their development, growth, and success, a testament to the company’s steadfast dedication to building a more equitable and inclusive world for all. Amway India has been one of the leading advocates for health-conscious individuals striving for excellence. In honour of Women’s Day, the company articulated a powerful message for all aspiring women to take charge of their health goals and persist in pushing their boundaries to accomplish their dreams
Commenting on the celebrations, RM, Amway India said, “At Amway, we hold an unwavering belief that women are the backbone of progress and growth, and we stand by our commitment to empowering them. As per an estimate, there are over 12 million micro, small, and medium enterprise (MSME) units run by women entrepreneurs, and their success is largely attributed to increased internet and mobile penetration which precisely resonates with this year’s International Women’s Day theme of ‘DigitALL: Innovation and technology for gender equality’. It is heartening to see women taking charge of their economic future, and the fact that more than 60% of Amway direct selling partners are women is a testament to our focus on creating a supportive and inclusive environment for women to thrive and flourish. As we celebrate the remarkable achievements of women this International Women’s Day, we renew our steadfast commitment to empowering women driven with a spotlight on holistic well-being and commitment to change, because we firmly believe that a world that empowers women is a world that fosters progress and prosperity for all.”
He further alluded, “From elections to board rooms, to peace talks, women play an intrinsic role as a powerful catalyst for change. Juggling between different roles and shattering the glass ceiling, women have always proved themselves by their ability to lead change through their astute and agile decision-making ability and competence to face challenges without deviating from their goals. Recognizing these potentials, Amway has long advocated its support for women’s empowerment in the country. As we celebrate International Women’s Day, we curated specific interventions “Empower Her’ to impart knowledge, provide support, and encourage them with our vision of Helping People Live Better, healthier lives.”
