Company increases points of distribution in key Florida & Georgia selling region

Clearly Canadian Beverage Corporation today announced that Clearly Canadian sparkling flavoured water has gained two chain listings in the Florida and Georgia markets. As well, the Company’s distributor for the territory, Southeast-Atlantic Beverage, has made the decision to add a further SKU of Clearly Canadian to its portfolio. Southeast-Atlantic Beverage will now offer five Clearly Canadian flavours to its customers.

Race Trac stores in the Florida and southern Georgia regions have now listed four flavours of Clearly Canadian in all of its 148 convenience stores and Quik Trip has also listed four of Clearly Canadian’s flavours in 104 stores throughout the region. Effective February 1, 2005, Southeast-Atlantic Beverage will begin resetting cooler doors to include brand Clearly Canadian in these stores.

"Our distributor, Southeast-Atlantic Beverage, has been instrumental in achieving these key new listings for brand Clearly Canadian. We believe that the effective distribution and sales strategies of Southeast-Atlantic have been essential to our successes in this region and will contribute to our ultimate goal of significantly increasing accounts in 2005" said Kevin Doran, Senior Vice President of Marketing and Sales, Clearly Canadian Beverage Corporation.
