One of our most frequently asked questions is, “How long has Richway International been in business?”
In a recent Richway publication, they announced their 26th Anniversary! Starting in 1997, they founded the company on a dream, hoping the unique bio-mat product would impact customers and possibly even change lives!
After receiving numerous heartwarming stories from hundreds of thousands of happy BioMat customers, Richway is not only celebrating a winning product and a milestone anniversary, but also recognizing their mission and vision is being fulfilled daily. What an amazing, powerful accomplishment!
So, who founded Richway International? An accomplished business woman, Jeanna Kim, is the founder. Originally from South Korea, she moved to the United States and travelled. While in Hawaii, she met her husband (Calvin Kim) and they had two children. From the stress of working in unfulfilling jobs and owning businesses, both Jeanna and Calvin became ill. A friend of the family was struggling to sell a “healing mat” and approached Jeanna to help him. Once they started using the early rendition of the BioMat, both Jeanna and Calvin started feeling better. That’s when they decided to invest all their savings from their other business ventures and start Richway International.
From the very beginning, Jeanna was motivated to share bio-mats with everyone! They decided to call the healing mats the BioMat to easily get across the point the product is related to health of body, mind and spirit. From its first introduction in 1997, the Kim’s have been focused on continuous product improvements.
Besides creating a really unique product, the Kim’s wanted to help its team of distributors find financial success. They see their business as a “teaching” organization, not a company that just sells products. It is with great pride we share information about them and watch for next week’s blog for even more information. Click here for the Richway website.
