QNET, a global direct selling company specialising in lifestyle and wellness products, has welcomed experienced journalists from seven West African countries to its corporate headquarters at QI Tower in Petaling Jaya, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
The visit forms part of QNET’s annual media junket aimed at offering journalists and the wider public—particularly in Africa—an opportunity to gain first-hand understanding of the company’s operations, business model, and product offerings.
Journalists from Ghana, Nigeria, Togo, Senegal, Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone arrived in Malaysia on June 19, 2025, for the engagement. As part of the programme, they also participated in the V-Convention (VCON), QNET’s flagship global event that brings together government officials, media practitioners, independent distributors, and entrepreneurs.
The journalists toured the 15-storey QI Tower, which serves as QNET’s global headquarters, before departing for Penang Island where the VCON is officially taking place. At QI Tower, they visited the QNET product gallery to physically interact with the company’s wide range of lifestyle and wellness products.
At the corporate offices, the media team also observed live operations and received presentations on QNET’s philosophy, business structure, and product development. The visit, according to organisers, was meant to underscore that QNET—now 26 years old—is a legitimate company with real products, staff, and global reach.
The journalists were introduced to the company’s philanthropic wing, the RYTHM Foundation (Raise Yourself To Help Mankind), which is focused on delivering impactful humanitarian projects worldwide.
Particular attention during the visit was drawn to QNET’s activities in Africa, where the company says its brand is often misused by fraudsters seeking to scam unsuspecting victims.
“It is clear that QNET has nothing to do with these scammers, and QNET is working to fight scams and misinformation,” organisers stated.
The visit is part of QNET’s broader effort to combat false narratives about the company in Africa and to encourage accurate public understanding through credible media engagement.
During the tour, QNET reiterated on multiple occasions that it does not offer job placements abroad, does not require exorbitant fees in exchange for employment, and does not issue scholarships or visas. The company also emphasized that it is not a Ponzi or investment scheme.
“QNET does not give scholarships or visas to anyone. QNET is not a Ponzi or investment scheme. QNET says anyone who spreads such misinformation should be reported to the security agencies or to QNET through its WhatsApp hotline: +233256630005 or email at [email protected],” participants were told.
QNET highlighted several anti-scam initiatives it is rolling out across Africa, including the “QNET Against Scams” and “Say No” campaigns. The company continues to educate the public on how to detect fraud and better understand its legitimate business model and globally certified lifestyle and wellness products.
The company further disclosed that it is actively engaging with governments and law enforcement agencies across various African countries to clarify its operations, address brand misuse, and promote collaboration to curb fraudulent activities conducted in its name.
Meanwhile, the visiting journalists expressed excitement as they prepared to witness the grand opening ceremony of V-Malaysia on Penang Island on June 21, 2025. The event will bring together thousands of QNET independent distributors for a celebration of shared success, testimonials, and renewed commitment to the direct selling model that QNET says is transforming lives across the globe.
