Marketwired
Reed's, Inc. (NASDAQ: REED) (NASDAQ: REEDR), maker of the
top-selling sodas in natural food stores nationwide, announced
today that it has received its first order from the largest
independently owned retail distributor of consumer goods, food
products, beverages and pharmaceutical lines in all of Southern
Africa. The initial order covered all of Reed's branded products,
including Reed's Ginger Brew, Virgil's Natural Soda and China Cola.
In addition, Reed's Inc. received its second order from a new
Israeli importer which distributes primarily natural products to
convenience stores throughout Israel.
"We are encouraged by these orders," stated Mr. Chris Reed,
Founder, Chairman and CEO of Reed's, Inc. "That the South African
order was of significant quantity and includes all three of our
product lines are just further proof of how much our international
sales department has stepped up its efforts. Reed's and Virgil's
are now available in at least eleven countries and we're expecting
to increase that number in the coming months."
By distributing products predominantly made in the USA, the
South African Importer has become a formidable force in that
country's retail trade sector. In fact, the importer currently
distributes high volumes of over 40,000 items to its local markets,
and that number is only expected to grow as its offerings become
more diverse. Reeds, Inc. is being regarded by many as a key
component of that company's expansion.
