AgriMarine Holdings Inc. (TSX VENTURE:FSH)(OTCQX:AGMHF)(FRANKFURT:A2G) (the
"Company" or "AgriMarine"), the leader in clean aquaculture technology, is
pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with the Ito-Yokado
grocery retail chain for the supply of locally produced fresh Chinook salmon
from AgriMarine's closed containment freshwater farm in Benxi, China. 


Previous harvests of Steelhead trout were sold through distributors to 5-star
hotels and restaurants however the agreement with Ito-Yokado marks the Company's
debut into the retail market. On August 28th, AgriMarine's salmon will be
available initially at Ya Yun Cun Beijing Huatang Ito-Yokado with in-store
promotions and marketing programs developed in cooperation with AgriMarine's
Beijing sales staff. These programs will involve the branding of the product as
Chinese produced in pristine waters of the northeast regions. The Company plans
to ramp up deliveries to supply all 15 Ito-Yokado retail stores in the near
future.


AgriMarine is the only company that raises salmon in China with floating closed
containment technology. Operational advantages inherent with the AgriMarine
System(TM), including the ability to moderate seasonal temperature extremes,
allow for the production of high quality salmon from reservoirs that can be sold
fresh, within 24 hours of harvest. This is a major consumer advantage over the
imported Atlantic salmon that is currently available in that country.


AgriMarine's CEO Richard Buchanan said, "Ito-Yokado sees the opportunity to
offer a salmon product with improved freshness over imports, to their customers
in Beijing and they are launching our product in one of their largest stores in
a high income community." He added, "Securing this supply contract is a
significant step for the Company. It provides protection against price
fluctuations, brings significant sales and cash flow, and demonstrates our
ability to deliver quality Pacific salmon at competitive prices."
