1/7/2008 - Sunwin International Announces Bulk Sale of RA50 Stevia Product

Order demonstrates diverse product capability for wholesale customers

Qufu, China, January 7, 2008 – Sunwin International Neutraceuticals, Inc. (OTCBB: SUWN) one of the world's leading producers of all natural, zero calorie Stevia, announced today that it has received an order valued at approximately U.S. $850,000 for its RA50 bulk Stevia extract. The order is expected to be delivered in February and March of 2009 and booked in the fiscal fourth quarter ending April 30, 2009.

 

Sunwin sells its Stevia products as a nutritional supplement in the United States in more than 4,000 grocery stores under its brand OnlySweet™. The company also supplies Stevia used in Zevia, a Stevia supplement beverage and the fastest growing beverage in its category according to AC Nielson reports. Sunwin expects that the FDA’s recent approval of Stevia for use in food and beverages in the United States will accelerate the company’s bulk stevia extract business and its retail package sales opportunity in the US marketplace. 

 

Chairman of the company Laiwang Zhang, commented, “This order is a good example of Sunwin’s successful diverse Stevia product strategy addressing a global market. Sunwin already sells a high quality consumer product in approximately 4,000 US stores under its proprietary OnlySweet™ brand, but is also able to supply large wholesale orders for specific Stevia extract grades to meet wholesale customer needs. Bulk orders support a diverse and growing global market for Stevia extract, as well as provide a profitable platform on which to grow as Stevia use expands both in the US and globally. It is our belief, that as Stevia gains acceptance in the US, food and beverage companies will desire a broader range of product at diverse price points to maximize value for the consumer. Sunwin is one of only a few large Stevia producers worldwide able to meet this need with quality product of exacting specifications. Sunwin has significant untapped production capacity to increase supply for large orders as well as the ability to expand our production in line with global demand growth.”
