This company's business model is even more successful outside the U.S. than inside. (Indeed, they screwed things up in the US by trying to sell products through retail and demoralizing its sales force. This should be improving with the job situation and flexibility of working hours.)
The business is not just poppable plastic containers since it has successfully expanded its model to market beauty products.
As an aside, and with no indication that this might be a possibility, it should be noted that Berkshire Hathaway has a similar subsidiary in the beauty product area so a takeover is not illogical.
