Great Lakes Trading (USA)

Feb 2004 - A contact writes:

Get this - I recently brokered a load of used clothing from a supposed small time collector in a small town in Michigan - we got there to watch the loading early in the morning - I started making small talk with the workers - turns out these collections were for an IICD school in Michigan -TVIND!!!! all the way - I ended up meeting a 25 yr senior TG member running the whole thing - good friends with Amdi.

The deal didn't go through G & S [Garson and Shaw] but rather a company called Great Lakes Trading.  Amazing!!!!  I have her cell phone if you want it.

it just blew my mind that this was Tvind.  We loaded at an IICD school out in the middle of nowhere in the woods of southern Michigan about 2 1/2 hours from Chicago.  The students of the school actually loaded the truck!!   Not only do they pay tuition to the school but they are free labor to load the trucks.  The person running the show was a 25 yr. senior TG member named Annaken, don't know her last name.  She told me she was close personal friends with Amdi!! She doesn't live anywhere but rather travels constantly overseeing various Tvind operations.  I quizzed her on many things including the Floryl plantation in Brazil which she gave me details and information I couldn't believe.  We discussed the accusations and negative media coverage surrounding Tvind and, shocker, she said it was ALL LIES!!!  I just couldn't push her too far because she was so defensive, she was on the verge of asking me to leave.  Anyway, she was a fascinating person.  Very smart, cheerful, well organized etc.  I asked her why we did not send the money for the load to Garston and Shaw.  She said Great lakes Trading handles different accounts.  Same people. 

Anyway,  these people are like nazis when it comes to business.  They don't miss a beat. They don't lose.
