"We are very excited to partner with Unique Foods, one of the largest major national distributors of high-end beverages.

This is a foundational step for us as Unique Foods is well-established in Canada with a successful track record of distributing premium beverage brands throughout all major Canadian cities. We are also pleased to announce that Unique Foods has already secured a listing for Natural Cabana™ Coconut Water in a major Canadian retail chain that has stores in every major city across Canada. This will give more than 80% of Canada's population access to our coconut water. We are targeting an early fall launch to have product on the shelves."

Since its mainstream emergence in 2006, interest in coconut water has gained momentum with sales doubling each year. There has been a lot of data regarding its health attributes including improved weight loss and improved physical appearance, spurring consumer interest, and prompting some of the industry's leading beverage companies to invest in this category. Coconut water is low calorie, naturally isotonic, has a neutral pH, is high in potassium, low in sodium and an ideal sports drink. Consumers view it as a healthy product and drink it for its great taste and for rehydration.
