WHITTIER, Calif., August 25, 2003 (PRIMEZONE) -- Pop N Go, Inc. (OTCBB:POPN), one of the fastest growing "better for you" snack companies in the world, has signed an Agreement with The International White Tea Company (IWTC) to begin distributing IWTC's "White T" line of soft drinks within Pop N Go's worldwide distribution network. "White T" is the only line of premium soft drinks naturally brewed with the world's finest White Teas.
"Pop N Go is particularly pleased to be able to add another cutting edge product to today's health conscious consumer. We have been looking for a beverage that would complement the snack food offerings currently being enjoyed by Pop N Go's customers. The innovative lineup of `White T' soft drinks will enable the consumer to quench their thirst with a healthy soft drink after consuming Pop N Go's popular freshly popped popcorn. Distributors of Pop N Go products have been asking for a cold beverage that could be offered to their customers and we're confident `White T' sodas are the right product at the right time," said Mel Wyman, Pop N Go's CEO.
A wide array of recent studies clearly show White Tea to have more than three times the potent cancer-fighting antioxidants (called polyphenols) than any other tea, including Green Tea. With these unparalleled antioxidant levels, White Tea has also proven to possess many other important health benefits that continue to be documented in major media reports, almost on a daily basis. The International White Tea Company has secured access to some of the world's rarest and finest White Teas and has recently developed a full line of naturally brewed White Tea soft drinks, including Black Cherry, Mandarin Orange, Raspberry Lemon, Sugar-Free Ginger Peach, and Premium White Tea Cola.
"IWTC is looking forward to delivering its `White T' soft drinks to POPN during the 4th quarter of 2003. We believe Pop N Go's existing distribution network that includes schools, hospitals, airports, malls, office buildings, and hotels will give our White Tea sodas the type of sales opportunities and exposure to get our brand off to a running start. We're also about to begin test-marketing our `White T' sodas with the world's largest food service providers, concessionaires, retailers, and fast-food chains," stated Jerry Brown, IWTC's Chief Communications Officer.
