2nd Winning Colours(R) Multi-Cleaner Truckload for Dynamic Paints in 2007 Big Box Accounts Show GrowthWinning Brands Corporation (PINKSHEETS: WNBD) www.WinningBrands.ca announces that Dynamic Paints of Mississauga, Ontario, has issued its 2nd truckload Purchase Order in 2007 for Winning Colours® Multi-Cleaner in response to growing demand for the environmental paint and stain remover amongst its "big box" retail customers. Winning Brands' Sales Manager Lorne Kelly considers it significant that with this order the year-over-year sales growth for Winning Colours® through this distribution channel has surpassed 100% compared with 2006. "It is encouraging to see existing distributors re-order Winning Colours® at a growing pace, rather than relying only on a larger network for their growth," says Kelly. Dynamic Paints is one distributor supplying national stores such as Home Depot and Canadian Tire, as well as independent home improvement retailers with Winning Colours® Multi-Cleaner. "Today's P.O. is in addition to recent partial truckload orders for the USA as U.S. stores begin stocking the new product for the first time," adds Kelly. A truckload of Winning Colours® Multi-Cleaner varies between U.S. $75,000 to U.S. $125,000 in ex-factory value depending upon mix of size SKUs in the shipment. <!--FIRST IMAGE PLACEHOLDER --> Winning Brands' CEO Eric Lehner notes that with the recent activation of professional purchase order financing and accounts receivable financing for Winning Colours®, inventory turns will be easier to accommodate. "It's not very glamorous to talk about the mechanics of financing, but in reality it means a lot for a company's viability to be able to produce a growing volume without distress," notes Lehner. "Getting the basics right and being a consistent performer is often a better predictor of long term success than great ideas by themselves," he adds. "Luckily, we've got both." Winning Brands Corporation manufactures Winning Colours® Multi-Cleaner in North America for consumer and commercial markets. Winning Brands' full product range includes a variety of environmentally responsible alternative cleaning solutions, including its non-toxic SMART(TM) Wet Cleaning Solutions alternative to Perchlorethylene used in Dry Cleaning, as well as health and beauty aids for persons with chemical sensitivities.
