Making History Since 1985

In 1985, a company called Melaleuca, Inc. became the first company to bring the healing powers of Melaleuca oil to people around the world. Today, we have become the largest online wellness shopping club in North America and have distribution centers around the world. There are over 1 million shoppers every month, with $2 billion in annual sales and a 96% monthly reorder rate.

The company was started by Frank L. VanderSloot. Since 1985, VanderSloot has grown Melaleuca into an international company. He directed the development of the company’s nutritional, pharmaceutical, personal care, and household cleaning products. 

Melaleuca has been ranked by Inc. magazine’s list of the nation’s 500 fastest-growing, privately-held firms. Melaleuca is a member of the Inc. 500 Hall of Fame and is the only company to remain on Inc.’s list for five consecutive years while also earning the publication’s #A profitability” rating each year. 

VanderSloot has earned leadership awards from many prestigious business organizations: 

•  Idaho’s Business Leader of the Year 
•  Entrepreneur of the Year by Ernst & Young, CNN, and USA Today 
•  Idaho Hall of Fame 
•  U. S. Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors 
•  Horatio Alger Award, 2015 Inductee of the Horatio Alger Association. 

Melaleuca is no ordinary company. In 30 years it went from a little startup company in Utah to a $2 billion enterprise doing business in 19 countries around the world. It is the largest manufacturer of consumer packaged goods in the Northwestern United States. 

Melaleuca’s mission is “to enhance the lives of those we touch by helping people reach their goals. Not just any goals, big goals. The desire to be happy.
