Ever
since 1969, when we were just a small company, we were already operating with
two great concerns. A concern for cosmetic products, as important tools for self-awareness
and knowledge and their power for transforming people's lives. And a concern for
the client, for human relations and their potential. A true discovery of the existence
of others in our lives.
During the first several years, in a small shop on Oscar Freire St., in
São Paulo, money was short, but we had dreams and courage to spare. It was our
intention, based on the quality of our products and the strength of our concepts,
to help people know themselves better and to be happier. . 
During
the first several years, a shortage of capital and the difficulties we faced
in expanding our personalized service on a larger scale contrasted with the successful
experience of clients who took Natura's products and spread our concepts to increasing
numbers of people. In
1974, a system of direct sales was established in order to enable the company
to grow, while continuing to be supported by personal relationships. The Natura
Consultancy was born. That
is how we ended the '70s, as a viable company, supported by its beliefs and
world view, which were the basis for creating innovative world-class products
and concepts. |
