Safeway/Vons Place Initial Purchase
Order for American Water Star Inc. Beverages
LAS VEGAS, Jul 1, 2004 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- American Water Star Inc. (AMW),
a publicly traded company located in Las Vegas, is proud to announce that
product orders have been received from Safeway/Vons.
Safeway/Vons will be placing the Hawaiian Tropic beverage line on their
store shelves during the month of July in the following locations:
California, Oregon, Washington, Alaska, Colorado, Arizona, Nevada and Texas.
The stores in these states will be served by 11 regional
distribution/warehousing centers.
"The addition of Safeway/Vons expands our Hawaiian Tropic beverage market
presence into areas where the beverage line was previously not available at
the retail store level," stated Roger Mohlman, CEO of American Water Star
Inc. "The company has had a large number of telephone calls and e-mails from
stockholders and customers inquiring about where and when they would have
the product available in several areas around the country, with California
bringing a high percentage of the inquiries. Safeway/Vons will open up the
California market, which previously did not have our Hawaiian Tropic
beverage line, and will increase our retail store presence in many other
states."
