Founding Story
Team National is located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Dick Loehr is the founder of the organization. In 1996, Dick began developing a company that would provide its customers with benefits and services, and in 1997, he provided his benefits package to a small direct selling company that began business in 1992. During the next two years, Dick and his team continued to enhance the benefits package. In (www.mlmlegal.com) 1999, Dick bought the marketing plan and associate group from that same direct selling company. He sought to restructure the company by relocating the corporate offices and developing field committees. In 2001, he redesigned the company's name, logo and brand that became what is known as Team National. Today, Dick's daughter, Angela Loehr Chrysler continues the tradition and is the president of the company.
