Amazon Herb Company
 PROFILE
Amazon Herb sees green in South America's trees. Under the name Rainforest Bio-Energetics, the company sells herbs and herbal extracts through a 10,000-person multilevel marketing network. The company buys raw materials harvested by indigenous peoples of the rainforests in Brazil, Paraguay, Peru, and Uruguay; it contracts with third parties to make its products, then it packages them under its own label for sale in the US. The company sells about 40% of its raw materials in bulk to other manufacturers. Founder, president, and CEO "Amazon John" Easterling owns nearly two-thirds of the company, which donates 10% of its net profits for rain forest preservation. Amazon Herb has withdrawn its planned IPO.
