I don't see why not, and that could be what is going on.
I looked through old PRs on WNBD site. I'm not finding one with any official agreement with Miele.
Any one elsehave a take on this??
PR from last year:
(May 1, 2007) Barrie, Ontario, Canada - Winning Brands Corporation (WNBD: Pink Sheets) www.WinningBrands.ca announces that it will operate live demonstrations of SMART™ Wet Cleaning Solutions at the world’s largest gathering of Dry Cleaners in the Las Vegas Convention Center June 11 – 14, 2007. SMART™ Wet Cleaning Solutions are an alternative to the solvent Perchloroethylene (Perc), which is coming under pressure from government agencies and environmental groups due to concerns about its safety. The ability to process all “Dry Clean Only” garments without Perc is considered a breakthrough in an industry looking for alternatives. SMART™ Wet Cleaning Solutions are the first documented “100% Solution” to this problem in the field of Wet Cleaning – a leading contender to replace Perc based systems.
The demonstrations will utilize Miele Professional Wet Cleaning equipment and take place in conjunction with Miele at Booth 1570 – specially designed for live operation at the event. The demonstrations will take “Dry Clean Only” garments from the assembled industry professionals through complete processing to a finished result utilizing plain water and SMART™ Wet Cleaning Solutions instead of Perc. It has been estimated that replacement of Perc by the
Dry Cleaning industry will prevent approximately 10,000 tonnes per year of Perc being released into the environment.
Winning Brands Corporation manufactures SMART™ Wet Cleaning Solutions for distribution to the Dry Cleaning industry by Solvent Free Solutions Inc. Solvent Free Solutions provides installation and training of proprietary Wet Cleaning systems internationally and on cruise ships. Winning Brands’ full product range includes a variety of environmentally responsible alternative cleaning solutions, including Winning Colours® Multi-Cleaner and KIND™ Laundry Products.
I'm checking, but that came from the US website.
PMG,
I'm not so sure of the relationship between Miele and WNBD
Check this link from the Miele website, they list a different partner for detergents for their wet cleaning.
Need to do more DD on that. See what I can find out.

Let me through out a reason we don't want to be in Walmart!
I was in one earlier this week and in the front of the store was stack of a Clorox multi-purpose cleaner that was Green-something( I bought a bottle to check it out, but it is in the trunk of the car at the airport), an environmentaly friendly concentrated cleaner-price point $2.98 for 28 oz.
Conversley, I was in a Lowes in the paint isle, and there was a "all natural/non-chemical" latex paint remover, price point
$4.98 for 16 oz.
HD, Lowes and the like is where WNBD belongs for the next year or two, marketed as a more industrial/specialty type cleaner(s).
Playing with Walmart would cut into the margins terribly, not what the company wants or needs in this growth stage.
I'm sure Rocket can comment better than I.
GLTYA!!
Preach it Dennis!!
Only disagree that I don't feel bad for those that sold.
Hopefully by the end of the day, my avg. per share went up a little and my account may be a little down from where it started. All OK by me, when looking at the where we will go.
O.T. - My wife's heart did skip a beat or two this morning, but she has recovered nicely, just like WNBD!!!
Rocket,
Don't even give this guy the time of day, because he will argue with you that it isn't.
Based on posting history, he shows up and bashes and admittedly does not own the stock.
GTYA today and in the future w/ WNBD!!!!!
Looks like right were we opened. OK by me!
I think you are on the wrong board!!
ClayTrader,
Very cool. Thanks for sharing!!
Dirt
Auto,
Help a guy out.
What is N??
.0084/.0085, Doesnt Matter!!
This baby held up all day long and didn
't take a hit from the Friday afternoon daytrader/flipper dump.
The float seems to be held very tight. Big MOMO going into next week. Maybe Eric will zing us with a PR on one of the new accounts. Great Week!!
Enjoy the weekend everyone!
Thanks Soapy!
Awesome email from Eric.
I get the feeling that as the company is moving into this growth phase and WB is starting to get the attention it deserves, Eric needs to sound off a little about doing it right. Justified to do so, IMO.
Can't wait to hear the report from our visitors today.
GLTYA!!!
I received my samples yesterday. Two full sized bottles of Winning Colours, along with a spray bottle. NICE!!!
Will put it to the test at every opportunity.
GLTYA!
LB,
Your address looks correct.
I sent her an e-mail last Wednesday evening, and had a return receipt on Friday AM.
Red,
Good to see you here. I'm mostly lurking as usual and letting the smart people talk. I've had some WNBD for about a year and started accumulating these 000's for the past couple of months. When folks like you, Soapy, and AP start showing up, puts a smile on my face.
Hope we all make some big cash on this in '08 and beyond.
GLTY!
Reading through this, I believe Eric is giving some reasonable details on where 2008 will take us.
- Financing plans to address emerging opportunities
- "Tipping points", retail chains going from testing to listing and regional to national.
- He even gives us a subjective glace at the minimal company valuation of $5M, just based on R&D, which would put the PPS at 10X where it is now.
'08 will be interesting!
Yes, updated as of December 5.
With that, it's starting to look like GS Energy could be the company rolled into SWVC, not Agrifuels. IMO
Soapy/Psycho
I'm catching up on the posts for the day:
-Screams of dilution
-Call the CEO for answers
-It's a scam
If I didn't know better I would swear I was reading the SWVC board.
Thanks for your work guys!
Plenty of patience here for the WNBD payday!!!
How about this from the GSGF site:
GreenShift Agrifuels and Global Ethanol Form Corn Oil Biodiesel Joint Venture
Wednesday November 14, 2:42 pm ET
Companies to Build 30 Million Gallon Per Year Corn Oil Biodiesel Facility at Global Ethanol's 100 Million Gallon Ethanol Facility in Lakota, Iowa
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--GreenShift Agrifuels (OTCBB: GSGF - News) and Global Ethanol, LLC today announced the execution of agreements to extract about 10 million gallons per year of crude corn oil from the distillers grain co-product of Global Ethanol’s 100 million gallon per year ethanol facility in Lakota, Iowa and 57 million gallon per year ethanol facility in Riga, Michigan, and to convert the extracted corn oil into biodiesel at Global Ethanol’s Lakota facility.
Under the terms of the agreements, GS AgriFuels Corporation and Global Ethanol formed a jointly owned company called GS Global Biodiesel, LLC to build, own and operate the Lakota, Iowa-based biodiesel facility. The GS Global Biodiesel facility will be initially sized for 10 million gallons of biodiesel production per year but will be designed to scale up to 30 million gallons per year in coordination with the onset of production of nearby corn oil extraction systems that are installed by GS AgriFuels’ parent company, GS CleanTech Corporation.
GS CleanTech’s patent-pending corn oil extraction system is designed to extract crude corn oil out of the distillers dried grain co-product of the dry mill ethanol production process. This crude corn oil has been proven to be an excellent biodiesel feedstock with the proper processing. GS CleanTech executed a development agreement with Global Ethanol and GS Global Biodiesel to build and install corn oil extraction systems at Global Ethanol’s Lakota and Riga ethanol facilities and to design and build the GS Global Biodiesel facility.
GS AgriFuels will raise and provide the financing for the construction of the corn oil extraction systems at Global Ethanol’s Lakota and Riga ethanol facilities, as well as the financing for the construction and operation of the GS Global Biodiesel facility. Global Ethanol will manage and operate the GS Global Biodiesel facility and market all of the biodiesel produced. GS AgriFuels has recently engaged an investment banker to raise the estimated $35 million needed for the project. The parties expect that the first tranche of financing, which will support the construction and installation of two extraction systems in Lakota and one extraction system in Riga, will close in December 2007. The GS Global Biodiesel facility is expected to be commissioned beginning during the fourth quarter of 2008.
Trevor Bourne, the chief executive officer of Global Ethanol, said that “We are very excited by the formation of GS Global Biodiesel. Global Ethanol is a leading producer of renewable fuels and is committed to increased production efficiencies and diversifying our commodities mix. GreenShift’s corn oil extraction and biodiesel production technologies have proven themselves to be the best solution available to achieve this. We are looking forward with great anticipation to the construction of GS Global Biodiesel and to exploring expanded opportunities to work with GreenShift in the future.”
“Global Ethanol is clearly committed to technology-driven production improvements and is a key strategic partner for GreenShift,” added Kevin Kreisler, GreenShift’s chief executive officer. “In addition to converting the 10 million gallons of corn oil that we extract from Lakota and Riga into biodiesel, we plan to ship an additional 20 million gallons of corn oil as we bring extraction systems online at nearby ethanol facilities to GS Global Biodiesel for conversion as well. Global Ethanol’s team will run the facility and market the biodiesel and their expertise in commodities management and operations will make a facility of this scale an exciting and successful project.”

Soapy,
I don't see it in the i-Box, but don't forget about the recent announcment of the JV(GS Global Biodiesel, LLC) with Global Ethanol. It is similar to Northeast Biofuels, with the co-located corn oil extraction with the biodiesel production. Should be more deals like this to come. Deals like this only bring more legitimacy to the technology and makes financing for the projects easier to get.
Keep in mind Toms comment about no up front cost to the customer.
Everyone needs to understand what that means. They are getting control of the oil from these deals. That, my friends is energy. With $100+ barrel oil, that will be huge!IMO
Soapy,
Been in this stock for over a year, but have been trying to accumulate lately at these PPS levels, true speculative buy.
I'm very curious as to the recent posts by you, TJG. Now A-P is a mod, but yet to post, all heavily involved in SWVC.
Any connections of the companies or just amongst yourselves?
As w/ GSCR/SWVC, the story here first caught my attention. Things have worked out well there, yes, and should continue to grow?
I see the same potential here. Methodical, well executed plan that looks as if it will take the company to the next level(s).
Good to have you all here. I'm mostly a lurker, but really appreciate I-Hub and posters, such as yourself.
GLTY!
lightbeam,
Yes, the "Tornado in a can"
I believe that is under GS cleantech now from the old Veridium.
DOAKES,
Great explaination.
Thanks and GLTY.
Solar,
Nice post. Hopefully they will get into phase 2 and start reporting some numbers next year. Accumulating down here and am letting this be my "what if" play for '08-'09.GLTY
Crash,
One question.
How or why would you possibly care about the professionalism of the CEO of a company that you profess to have never bought a share??

never bought.
Keep this in mind from lowtrade.
I agree, still highly manipulated by the MMs. They are heavily accumulated in this PPS range and can't wait forever to take it up for the profit run. With all the pissing and moaning going on, they may walk down a little further, but if they don't let it pop, not enough retail will be around to help out the run.IMO

The big guys have shown their accumulation level the past week. low 2's. Matter of fact millions & millions & millions at 2.
My guess is they are afraid to take it lower. They understand, they could cut off their own foot, if they scare everyone following it. Just hope they know they could bore them away also. LOL
I just don't see any logical reason to hurt their own odds for an eventual profit run. Or a reason they would want to hurt the company. After all they own a HUGE amount of stock in the 2 cent range now. They already sold the shares they held below a penny.
But I have no real idea what they are waiting for. This bothers me, greately!! IMO they are over due, but maybe they continue to hold it down, with some help from their M&M friends & continue to accumulate because it's Soooo easy.
My problem with that is, they may just force many to get tired and loose interest. It's starting, people giving up and just moving on! I'm getting close too.
That could really hurt their play. The main thing IMO, is as long as M&Ms can continue to keep the volume up, for themselves & close the favorite clients muli million share accumulation daily, why not continue to accumulate & wait.
The thing to remember is the IHUB board is NOT the retail world!!! The merger completion was reported Wensday, when found in the local news. But the gap up didn't happen until it hit the wires!
Today showed the big guy reserve about this. The run was stopped quick. The hold went for hours, with only several million share trades in the 23/4 range, during that hold. And not much else. IMO the EOD pull down was all M&Ms & the million share trades were accumulated on the first order book until they could close the favorite clients block orders on the open market, in between, during the hold.
I've been watching this stock for 2 months now and I never saw volume stop so long, except for huge block trades. This is sick!
Had to be the broker/dealers holding their broker book, to be able to close the million share orders. Just NO way they found a order match for 1 or 2 million, that had a (AON) and couldn't find matches for 50 50k orders!!! The manipulation there is unbelieveable!! IMO
We'll see, but after the way the big guys have treated retail this week. They may have to work real hard to get their profit run going. Too many just won't believe any run start, after this week.
I don't know what to say. I am already past my normal time limit to hold a swing. These guys are pissing me off. LOL I hate to bend my rules, but I'm still green. And they have to sell for a profit some day. LOL
Well stated!!!!
Yes, but it hasn't updated since 8:33AM.
This was cancelled as of last Friday. The whole GS restructure has changed. See the sharholder letter released by KK on Friday. GSCT will now do a 1:50 R/S.
Agree.
The bottom line is that the banks want/need a more cohesive structure between corn oil and biodiesel to fund projects.
Tom is not going to pollute this with SWVC involvement right now, maybe later. GLTYA
Good morning to you AP.
See you on the GS board also.
Big money to be made here and there for those who are patient!!!
IMO
Thanks for laying it out so clearly.
Great post!!
bru-man,
been trying to sum up my feelings for one "please shut your pissing and moaning pie holes" post.
You did it for me.
Thanks and GLTY!!!
Great weekend all!
tradentime,
Yes, would love to hear the highlights. Been in and out of this for a while.They never update their website and have had the same Q&A from Eric for months.
As you say, they have a real product(s) and keep putting out what seem to be PRs that have some teeth, yet the stock flounders.
Don't type too much. Just wanted you to know that others, at least me, are interested.
Thanks!
Has it been de-listed in Germany??
Thanks.
Second that!!
Red,
Props to you for posts on this and connecting the dots.
The GS folks have been setting up to ride the biofuels wave.
SWVC can/will be intragral in this on key parts.
Some will be scared away because of Cornell and KK. What they need to understand is that sometimes these small companies need to do whatever they need to to keep operating to get to the next level. I see this as the case.
Tom has been there with GS all along and has been helping to put the dots together to connect.
8K, PRs. People screaming for the now. All are important.
However, you and Abbey have opened the correct can of DD worms.
Should be very good for those who are truely longs.
All IMO!
Abbey,
I have followed the GS family since inception, and understand the relationships, in regards to Tom, SWVC, KK and GS.
Yes, Cornell is a problem there, but the technologies and business models are solid.
Of the preceeding 61807 posts on the GSCR/SWVC board,
yours is THE MOST ACCURATE TO DATE!!!
Patience folks.We own a potential monster here.
All IMO!!!!!!
