According to the WFDSA annual global statistics report, 6.565 Million Europeans were active in Direct Selling in 2021. 81% of them are women.

Direct Selling retail sales (excl VAT) in the EU grew by 3%, and by 5.7% for the rest of Europe (Norway, Switzerland, Turkey, Ukraine, UK), averaging at 3.2% for the whole region.
