US-based direct selling major Amway expects women entrepreneurs to play a crucial role in its future growth in India -- one of the four countries which it has identified as a key market, according to the company's global CEO Milind Pant.
The company, which has set a target of helping "a billion people live healthier" by 2029 under a 10-year plan to mark its 70th anniversary, currently has women accounting for around 60 per cent of the 5.5 lakh-odd distributors it has in India.
"India is going to be a priority for us along with China, US and Thailand. We identified four priority markets, of which India is one of them," Pant told PTI in an interview.
He further said, "India is already one of our top 10 markets and we look at India as being one of four markets that will drive global growth."
