NHT Company History

The remarkable NHT Global story

It began with a single phone call.
On Monday, January 22, 2001, just 10 days after a phone call from some past business associates concerning introducing through network marketing a new intimacy product for women, NHT Global, Inc. launched with the product we now call Alura™ . After just 48 hours on the market, sales of this one-of-a-kind product topped $500,000 U.S.

Within five months, NHT Global launched in Canada, Australia, Puerto Rico and New Zealand. The potential in international markets was enormous, but so were the hurdles.

Against all odds.
As we prepared to open new markets, we found new opportunities and new challenges to overcome. There were serious roadblocks that could have halted our forward expansion, but instead they made us a stronger company as we overcame and learned from each challenge.

Despite those hurdles, NHT Global, Inc. reported first year revenues of $20 million U.S. and we helped two dedicated and hardworking distributors become million-dollar earners – all in under a year!

Our commitment to our distributors is unrivaled. We believe and are committed to creating opportunities for success for our members – whether that is with new product introductions or new market openings.

It only gets better from here.
In looking at the future of NHT Global, we are far from finished. In fact, we are increasing our efforts as we continue to expand into new product lines and open new markets and countries. All of our efforts are driven by a focus on the success and dreams and belief in you, the distributor!
