AMW American Water Star

American Water Star Inc. (AMEX: AMW) announces their current sales strategy and significant events relative to present and future sales efforts, including inventory status. The following is a brief summary of events: -- We recently shipped our Hispanic line of beverages, Geyser Fruta, into Mexico for our new customer, Go For Value. With Go For Value projecting 55 stores by 2006, we plan to expand our Latin beverage program to accommodate their growth. -- Our new distributors include: Sysco Foods in Arizona, U.S. Foods in Arizona and Absolut Sales & Marketing in Fairfield, N.J. -- AMW is in negotiations with a prominent national/international bottler to manufacture and produce three gallon and five gallon water container products that will be sold through two of the country's largest retailers. -- Uni-Bev, a distributor in southern Florida, is preparing an announcement regarding an agreement with AMW for the sale of water and beverage in Canada and Haiti. Uni-Bev's parent company, Uteco, is the Coca-Cola(TM) bottler for Haiti and has a successful micro-brewery in Canada. -- AMW has reached an agreement in principal to sell water and beverage to a regional food chain based in San Diego, estimated to begin mid-July. -- 70% of our excess product inventory has been purchased by a nationally prominent retailer for immediate distribution. The significant reduction in present inventory will impact the opportunity for greater distribution and market presence nationally.
