Sunwin Stevia International Receives Multiple Re-Orders for OnlySweet(TM) Within Weeks of Delivering Its Initial Stocking Order to One of Its Largest Customers
Tuesday July 10, 7:00 am ET
TAMARAC, FL--(MARKET WIRE)--Jul 10, 2007 -- Sunwin Stevia International Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Sunwin International Neutraceuticals, Inc. (OTC BB:SUWN.OB - News), announced today that it has received multiple re-orders for the company's OnlySweet(TM) all natural dietary supplement. These re-orders came from one of the company's largest customers, within a matter of weeks of it being available to consumers. While total consumer sales figures have not been obtained from grocery store outlets, management is greatly encouraged by the fact that reorders have been placed in such a short time. Management believes that the reorders are a strong indication that the customer is experiencing a positive consumer response at those outlets stocking OnlySweet(TM) and the company intends to gear its supply chain to rapidly respond to any additional increases in demand from its customers.
Steven Silbert, Executive Vice President of Sunwin Stevia International, stated, "We are extremely encouraged by the initial response to OnlySweet(TM). While we believe our product has reached only a limited number of stores, these additional orders indicate that our belief that consumers are gravitating towards all natural products, and are perhaps more than ever before, willing to try new alternatives to synthetic or chemically altered products is proving to be correct. A major milestone in the process of bringing a new product to market is the consumer's willingness to try something new. These orders, being received so soon after the stocking orders, continue to increase our optimism that we are in the right place at the right time. We feel that the time we spent in product development, market research, taste testing, and marketing, will provide us with consistent growth in the future as our brand recognition increases. We feel that with the recent news regarding the benefits of stevia, and our growing position in the market, places OnlySweet(TM) in a position to become one of the leading brands in a rapidly growing category for many years to come."

I think we will still go over $1.00 and will load up again soon if dips any lower. Im in at .58 so no worries yet
One thing clear from todays action. Is that the market likes the stevia news and cares much less about the herbal veterinary medicines. Im sure there is a market for the herbal stuff in china.
looks like a good buying op, being walked down on little volume
sounds good to me
Made most active and most read board lists. Should be interesting day today
suwn going strong
Good morning, a premarket pr would be sweet.
That chart is a beautiful thing. Classic cup just need the handle
might hit that today :D
Thats great news. Looks like we got another gapper at .74 x .74
WTVI gotta include Alex the Fluffmaster
They have said in one of the pr's that they expanded to 600 tons annual, up from 300. with plans to expand to 1000 tons by the end of the year. This is steviacide, which is supposed to be very potent 100x sweeter then sugar. Very little steviacide is in each packet of Onlysweet it is mostly maltodextrin, from what I can tell from the labeling, and from other stevia products which just take a small drop of liquid stevia extract to flavor a cup of tea. So I think they have some serious capabilities. All IMHO of course. Should be an interesting day tomorrow when the chart shows up on peoples scans. Its a beautiful thing, sure made my balances look a lot better
thoughts on SUWN
Still kicking myself for not getting more in the .50's I'm really impressed by what this company is doing. I drink a ton of Diet Soda and would buy a stevia diet soda in a heartbeat. Even a small beverage company would use an enormous amount. I think we are still undervalued here. $2.00 is not unrealistic in short term 2-6 months. Cant wait to see next financials. Any one find Onlysweet in the other stores Schnucks, Brookshire and Albertsons and at what price?
New stevia product enters sweetener aisles as awareness increases
By Lorraine Heller
6/20/2007 - A new stevia sweetener product has made its way into a number of leading US retailers, where its manufacturer claims it is placed side by side with the nation's top sweetener brands, despite its regulatory status as a dietary supplement.
The move, claims manufacturer Sunwin Stevia International, is a clear indication that the market is ready to embrace a more 'natural' sweetener alternative, as consumers become increasingly concerned about artificial products.
For the time being, the company is focusing on the retail market, but according to Sunwin executive vice president Steven Silbert, the potential of supplying the food and beverage industry has "not been discounted" by the firm.
Stevia, derived from the South American plant stevia rebaudiana, is said to have up to 300 times the sweetness of sugar. As a sweetener, stevia's taste has a slower onset and longer duration than that of sugar, although some of its extracts may have a bitter or liquorice-like aftertaste at high concentrations.
It is not currently approved in the United States or Europe as a food additive, due to a lack of adequate information on its safety. However, the ingredient is approved as a food additive in around a dozen other countries, including Japan, Brazil and China.
In the US, stevia is approved for use as a dietary supplement. It has so far been available in 'green' stores, where a niche sector of health-aware consumers has traditionally purchased it for its sweetener properties.
But Sunwin now says it has got its product, OnlySweet, onto the shelves of Kroger, Schnucks, Brookshire and Albertsons.
"We're being placed on the shelves of thousands of outlets - we're in the sweetener aisle, sitting right next to the top three sweetener products in the world," said Silbert.
"It is not necessarily a negative that the product is listed as a dietary supplement - we're creating a lot of awareness as to what the product is, and it's already a large achievement to get it into stores alongside the sweeteners."
OnlySweet, a stevia blend also containing maltodextrin and a proprietary flavoring agent that masks stevia's better aftertaste, only entered the retail market in December last year, but Sunwin has high hopes for its future.
It expects to have its product in 3,000 grocery outlets by July. The firm, which is a subsidiary of a leading stevia manufacturer Sunwin International Neutraceuticals, said it is well positioned for "accelerated future growth" due to its ability to produce a consistent supply of premium grade stevia.
Silbert said that although the company's main focus remains retail, it is also meeting with certain manufacturers to explore the possibility of supplying the product as an ingredient for the food and beverage industry.
"It's a potentially big avenue for our product, especially if the status of stevia changes," he said.
Indeed, there have been rumors that the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) could be petitioned to approve stevia as a food additive.
Public awareness of the ingredient shot up earlier this month, after the Wall Street Journal revealed that big players Coca-Cola and Cargill were teaming up to market a stevia sweetener product. Coca-Cola has filed 24 patent applications for the ingredient in the US.
According to the article, the two firms are gathering data on the ingredient in order to apply for FDA approval.
If this is granted, the market for sweeteners could be set for a major shift.
"We believe this is going to shape the sweetener industry," said Silbert. "Sales of diet sodas are down because people are concerned about things like aspartame and sucralose. They're looking for something more natural."
"We're seeing an incredibly dynamic set of circumstances in the market," he told FoodNAvigator-USA.com.
"We don't use the word 'sweetener' to market our product due to current FDA regulations. But if these change based on what Coke and Cargill are doing, then we'll change our position too."

looks like they are just combining the hearings of this guy with the Jason Wong select case. And preventing him from trading securities til the jun 25th hearing.
Couldn't agree more, I am always a bit nervous the first few days. Got in at .58 will feel alot better when gets above .65. Then can go watch something else. With enough of a gap can set a stoploss. Feel pretty confident in this one though and just load up more if drops below that. We absorbed some pretty big sells today and held firm with a little green. Have a great weekend.
nice buys still coming in
oops wrong board deleted
looking good nice volume
those warrants looming over is keeping the price down. The volume is just not here yet to adsorb another dump. Maybe this PR will bring the volume we need to get this going up. I like this company, and the product. Don't think you can go wrong buying at this price. but will it bounce off .50 or .40 or go straight up from here. Don't have my crystal ball
If Walmart starts carrying OnlySweet then Boom. I do expect some more selling today on the news just hope not as drastic.
I was also impressed with the detail of latest filings. Looks like a very well run company with solid profit earnings. Looking for long term and some flipping of course. Could see this in several dollar range before too long. I was looking into this a few months ago when had the bird flu disinfectant. Should bounce hard here real soon.
Im looking to get in tomorrow most likely. Seeing it on the shelf here really boosted my confidence. On side of box says Distributed by Sunwin Stevia International Corp. Tamarac, FL 33321 www.onlysweet.com
Very nice packaging, tastes good not overpowering sweet, no bitter aftertaste in back of throat. Had my cup of coffee early.
Yes in Parkersburg WV, if its here its gonna be everywhere since we get everything last :D
