USANA was founded by an immunologist and microbiologist Myron Wentz.[3] It is based in Salt Lake City, Utah. The company sells its products through multilevel marketing: associates recruit other associates, who recruit still others.[3] The products are not available through retail channels, but instead can only be obtained by a direct order to the company or through one of its independent associates. [3] The company employs approximately 1,000 people worldwide, and has 176,000 associates and "preferred customers" in its worldwide distribution network. Approximate sales for 2007 was $427 million of which 87% was generated by associates, and 13% by preferred customers.[4] The company states that, as of 2009, its products are marketed in the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, United Kingdom, Netherlands, Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Korea, Singapore, Mexico, Malaysia and The Philippines. From 2004 to 2006, USANA was named on Forbes 200 Best Small Companies list.[5]

During 2007, USANA faced repeated controversy as several of its executives were discovered to have made false statements regarding their qualifications.[6] These included Denis Waitley, a member of the board of directors[7], Ladd McNamara, who quit the company's medical advisory board after it was discovered his license to practice medicine had been revoked,[8][9][10] the Vice President of Research and Development, Timothy Wood, who was found to have doctorate in forestry, as opposed to biology as he had claimed,[11] and the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Gilbert Fuller, who had continued to use the title of CPA,[12] though his license had lapsed.[11][13]

In 2007, USANA was not included on Forbes' 200 Best Small Companies list, and an article in the magazine quoted industry and government experts who had raised questions about USANAs business practices and products.[14][15] USANA responded by issuing a press release which denied several of the allegations and claimed that the article contained errors.
