WNBD Winning Brands Corporation (PK)

Winning Brands Corporation (Pink Sheets:WNBD) www.WinningBrands.com reports that its 1000+™ Stain Remover brand will be stocked by Do-it-Best's distribution centers and thus become available to all 4,000 Do-it-Best associated hardware stores in the USA and over 40 countries internationally.

This listing is considered by Winning Brands to be the most significant retail development in its history because of the large number of U.S. retail locations that become accessible under a single, nationally recognized retail banner. Do-it-Best is known for its slogan "World's Largest Hardware Store®" because of the large number of stores that comprise the member-owned hardware and building materials buying cooperative. Many Americans are familiar with the banner and live within driving distance to one or more Do-it-Best associated hardware stores. The listing will also enable Winning Brands to design U.S. national marketing initiatives for the first time in concert with a nationally recognized retail banner.

Winning Brands CEO Eric Lehner comments:  "We have never before had such efficient access to 4,000 retail locations - becoming an approved vendor and product is a huge development. Participating Do-it-Best hardware stores will be able to easily order as few, or as many, bottles of 1000+ Stain Remover conveniently because of freight consolidation. Eight Do-it-Best Retail Service Centers across the USA provide weekly "mixed-SKU" deliveries to all U.S. stores. This is a fulfillment breakthrough for Winning Brands - the Do-it-Best delivery system is extraordinarily flexible.   All the 1000+ Stain Remover brand marketing assets, including display stands, brochures, signage and other merchandising materials are welcome elements in the Do-it-Best environment.  The individual stores will decide on what level to be involved and arrangements will be tailored accordingly. Test stores in the Do-it-Best family have been very enthusiastic about 1000+ Stain Remover (formerly known as Winning Colours). It's the right product, in the right retail group, at the right time – a perfect fit and mutually beneficial." Winning Brands anticipates Do-it-Best store deliveries to start in Q3 2011. Winning Brands is already booked to attend the October 2011 semi-annual Do-it-Best Market as a new product partner.
