TriVita's 10/100 International Expansion Program a Formula for Healthy Global Growth

PROVO, UT, March 27, 2012

Access Technology Solutions (ATS), a strategic growth partner for TriVita's 10/100 International Expansion Program is announcing the smooth launch of phase one of the global nutraceutical industry leader's program to bring health and wellness products and education to 100 countries during the next 10 years.

Access TS provided TriVita with the cross-border commerce technologies and international shipping and logistics services that have facilitated its move into ten key international markets. In Europe, Trivita's phase one markets are the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands. In Asia-Pacific, Trivita's initial markets include Australia, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Thailand. Access also built the software and logistical foundation for TriVita's move into Canada.

"TriVita's 10/100 international vision is spot-on and ahead of the curve," explains Chris Boyle, ATS' President and CEO. "Over the past decade, we've had an on-the-ground view of the stunning growth of the world's middle class, especially in Asia. Every day we see hard-working members of the global middle class upgrade their lifestyle, health and wellness. Globally this is a boom time for products that make people look and feel good. It's great to be able to help TriVita take its wellness vision global."

Globally, the wellness industry is booming and premium wellness products are increasingly in high demand. However, the explosive demand for nutraceuticals from a wide range of global manufacturers and distributors has also heightened the scrutiny of customs clearance officials around the world. This is where ATS is playing a key role in TriVita's 10/100 international expansion program.

For TriVita's phase one international markets, ATS has been instrumental in ensuring that TriVita's product lines are harmonized with each market's import regulations. ATS's cross-border distribution software calculates the duty and tax implications for each of the respective 10 country borders where TriVita will distribute its products. ATS also guarantees TriVita's distribution partners that they are quoted accurate and complete landed costs for any products they import.

ATS' international sell-and-ship solutions also provide TriVita and its global affiliate partner network with robust order tracking capabilities. This ability to improve the end-to-end purchase experience for TriVita's international distribution partners has differentiated ATS from common carrier' services, most of which do not provide cost-effective order tracking.

"Our global partnership with ATS' team provided the cross-border logistical lift we needed to reach an exciting milestone in our mission of taking wellness to the world," said Michael Ellison, TriVita CEO. "Our 10/100 international growth program is committed to spreading the news of health and wellness to 100 countries in 10 years. Working with ATS to expand into all of the key Asian and European markets is an important step toward reaching that goal."

ATS has quietly become one of the direct selling/direct response industry's top providers of international logistic solutions and technology services. ATS is able to deliver high-value, low-cost express shipping due to the impressive volume of goods it moves daily into fastest-growing global markets across Europe and throughout Asia, where its proprietary shipping lanes include its new China channel as well as its long-established, high-volume Japanese, South Korean and Indonesian shipping operations. ATS typically reduces international shipping costs from 40% to 70% compared to large common carriers.

TriVita is a leading international nutraceutical company doing business in the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the European Union, and Asia. It's known for its full line of ultra-quality wellness products, many of which have unique formulations and/or absorption methods that are not available from anywhere else. And since the company's mission is to help people everywhere achieve greater wellness - both in their physical lives as well as their financial ones - TriVita also provides an exceptional business opportunity for independent affiliates to fulfill their life purposes.
