"USANA is deeply invested in its commitment to ethical business practices--which is why we are proud to be a part of such an important initiative," said Dan Whitney, vice president of ethics and market expansion. "Every year, we voluntarily participate in the Code of Ethics Communication Initiative because we believe it is of the utmost importance to maintain the highest level of ethics in operating a direct sales business. Being a part of this initiative helps spread the word to all of USANA's Associates and the public about the code that guides ethical business practices and consumer services in this significant industry."

Created in 2008, the initiative recognizes member companies that go above and beyond in their efforts to promote awareness of the code by fulfilling the necessary criteria and adhering to ethical business practices within direct sales. The initiative encourages companies to be truthful about their products, services, identity and privacy. It seeks to eliminate deceptive or unlawful consumer or recruiting practices and creates an environment of ethical business practices.

USANA was required to complete five of the 16 recommended activities before March of this calendar year to qualify for the initiative. USANA's qualifications were then reviewed by DSA staff and verified by DSA's code administrator.
