EYI Industries Inc. Announces New Associate


BURNABY, British Columbia, Jan. 27, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- EYI Industries Inc. ("EYI") (OTCBB:EYII) (http://www.StopDrinkingPoison.com), a marketer of products that promote well-being and a healthy lifestyle, is pleased to announce that Lou Prescott has joined both its sales and marketing team and its prestigious Executive Council committee. Mr. Prescott has had success in marketing water filtration. While with National Safety Associates, he built a team of over 12,000 distributors who sold an estimated $65,000,000 in water filtration systems in a three-year period. Mr. Prescott was a member of a select group of distributors and trainers whose expertise in marketing water filtration systems was unparalleled.

In 1991, Mr. Prescott joined a newly created network marketing division of the Rexall-Sundown family of companies, which went public on NASDAQ in 1993. He became president and CEO and guided the organization to 25,000 distributors at the rate of 2,000 a month with estimated company sales of $25,000,000-$30,000,000 in the third year. Mr. Prescott has continued to build and consult to successful sales organizations and now believes that the EYI business opportunity and the Code Blue water filter is the perfect platform from which to create another sales organization.

Lou Prescott comments, "I know water, the size of the clean water market and the scope of the EYI business opportunity. The Code Blue system and the taste of the water are incomparable in my opinion. I love the tiered compensation structure with commissions, built-in bonuses for performance and the ongoing filter sale built through the convenience auto-ship program. With my powerful contacts here in North America and Asia, this should be very exciting."

According to Jay Sargeant, the CEO and President of EYI, this is a key moment. Jay Sargeant stated, "It is rare to find an asset like Mr. Prescott. He has talent in sales team development, corporate affairs and marketing. When you add his background and contacts in marketing water filtration systems, you have a person who can bring value to our business and Code Blue marketing."
