I think everyone knows that we'll see a penny + again. Just a matter of time, and waiting for everyone to get on board.
VitaminFIZZ in nearly 1400 stores. (With more to be added) Spring and Summer sales should be very good.
Vitamin Creamer coming soon. Maybe a pleasant surprise or two.
Traders jockeying for position. Lots of contentious banter... Fun times ahead.
MINE
Really nice day here. Lots of 6's and 7's loaded today.
SAMP
I think one is about to break out. Lots of excitement! Wonder what's on the menu...
MINE
Nice of the company to sponsor this event. Shows the good will of our executives.
Followed you back. I'm already in this one. Looking forward to a nice move.
SAMP
April 15 may be a reason for low volume this week.
Recent photos of products may indicate an update soon. Lots of potential catalysts...
IMO.
MINE
Great looking products. The updated pictures of both VitaminFIZZ and Vitamin Creamer today may also be an indication that news will be coming soon.
MINE
Yep. He's making a name for himself. Will be interesting to see what the future holds for Ezra and for MINE.
Updated pictures of VitaminFIZZ with colored caps too.
Nice to see.
Interesting to see Ezra on the panel.
Wondering if these acquisitions will be in the US or abroad... Or both..
"The increased availability of capital is part of Minerco?s growth strategy of creating significant equity value for its shareholders in the weeks and months to come. Put simply, Minerco has earmarked a portion of the additional credit line to continue to make acquisitions of cash-flowing assets. By strategically adding assets and/or vertically integrating key vendor services, Minerco intends to create internal profit centers, preserve margins, and add to the company?s overall equity value. The acquisition of said new assets is currently being considered for the Summer of 2015."
MINE
Amen. Happy Easter!
"If you look at the PCB photos those barrels have a black lip on top and the latest picture has a withe lip."
Interesting observation. A new run of barrels and a new run of bottles?...
Power Brands posted the same picture.
MINE
Can't be sure, but BH made a point about the band at the top being a different color, so these barrels would appear to be a new (or additional) production.
Power Brands posted the same picture, so something is up.
I expect we will find out soon.
MINE
I think we're about due for an update. Spring and Summer are peak seasons for VitaminFIZZ.
MINE
Nice catch. Someone mentioned the colored caps earlier. We're due for a bigger run to keep up with the new chains and UK rollout.
MINE
Perhaps to avoid being misconstrued I should have said: "Fortune favors the bold"...
MINE
Could be either. Of course I would prefer a new chain, or two...
For visibility near registers, these barrels can certainly get our brand name some much needed recognition.
MINE
Correct adamviva. Posting from memory... But I like what Avenzar brings to the table. A bold move for the company at this early stage, but one that I believe will make a big difference in the long run.
I do believe Vanis and Ezra have long term objectives. The set up so far points in that direction.
MINE
I count about 40 barrels there. I see these (from other vendors) in convenience stores, grocery stores and mini marts.
First VitaminFIZZ barrels that I have seen. I wonder if these are for a new account?
MINE
Wonder where these barrels of VitaminFIZZ are going?

Nice! I always look forward to your updates KU.
Regardless of any debate about how the company should be managed, there is undeniable evidence of expansion.
Based on store count alone, I say they are doing a great job so far.
Adding UK and expanding across the South/Southwest will make that list very attractive to potential investors.
I would also like to see NorCal and Carolina to Florida expansion this Summer. The timing couldn't be better.
MINE
Great post KU. I also read the recent filings.
Here's my take on the current debt & share structure debate:
Launching a new product takes capital.
We (using Vanis' words as a shareholder/co owner) are in over 1300 stores now, including 3 national chains, (Regional for now, but getting our foot is in the door is huge) and Amazon. (Which has worldwide distribution)
We own a majority stake in Avenzar Distribution and get 2 bites of the apple from all products.
We are about to launch in the UK. Overseas at this early stage of the company is a bold move.
These milestones could not have been achieved without capital, and lots of it. Debt was necessary to get us to this point.
So, I ask every current and prospective shareholder if they would rather have debt, or a 10 Billion + share structure like so many OTC companies have?
Imo, the surest way to drive away investors in this exchange is with an overly inflated SS or a R/S.
As your post so clearly points out, the company has chosen conventional, non toxic financing to lay the foundation for expansion at exactly the right time.
The best possible time to launch and expand VitaminFIZZ is during the Spring and Summer seasons.
Rather than extrapolate from what Mr. Vanis has not said, I too, as a shareholder/co owner will take his words at face value unless and until I have reason to do otherwise.
Go MINE
Ding Ding Ding!!! We have a winner! If they can do it in Saudi Arabia, they can do it in CA.
Heads up their Arses in CA. Been that way for too long...
Dating myself, but wasn't there a Grateful Dead song... "Ridin' that train, high on cocaine"...
Feel the FIZZ Moonbeam, feel the FiZZ.
MINE
Lol! California needs revenues. It's an addiction... Fact is, there have been restrictions for several years in CA.
The majority of the water restrictions in recent years have mainly affected agriculture. Can't grow crops in California, but drinking is just fine.
Give "Moonbeam" a case of VitaminFIZZ and he'll look the other way.
MINE
The West coast, Southwest, Deep South and East Coast regions are just beginning to warm up.
Hopefully the plan is to expand "around" the US where VitaminFIZZ should do well during the Spring and Summer months.
So Cal distribution, NY distribution, South West distribution seems to be the focus. With strong sales in these regions, moving up the west coast, down the east coast and across the south could follow.
We are approaching peak season for a new cool refreshing and healthy beverage to emerge...
Interesting times ahead.
MINE
That's what I'm watching. Since mid December there has been a steady increase.
I'm sure they are thinking well into the future. I'm interested in the next 2 Q's, as there should be some reliable numbers from the UK to go along with regional US expansion by then.
Vanis said they are not looking back... Looking forward here...
MINE
Would like to see those other markets light up after the UK rollout.
MINE
Highly carbonated with no vitamins. VitaminFIZZ is much better tasting and healthier. Not a good side by side comparison, imo.
I believe VitaminFIZZ will be the first product (of its kind) in the UK.
MINE
Vanis and Ezra are in the process of building a brand, not pacifying day traders.
MINE
Objectives laid out clearly and well executed. Solid foundation is set to build upon through the Spring and Summer.
MINE
Looks like a warehouse to me... Nice supply of VitaminFIZZ. Looks like Black Raspberry and Lemon Lime on the left.
MINE
"Just a giant coincidence."
Not...
MINE
The east coast is still thawing out after a record breaking winter. Numbers from that region are meaningless until it warms up, which will happen.
Thanks for your insight re: NorCal. I agree. A market that deserves some attention. San Jose to Redding has great potential.
MINE
"This is a repeat of the same BS people were saying when it dropped to .0022"
And then ran to over a penny. Once everyone loads up, it will happen again.
MINE
San Francisco. More of a company event than a regional push, imo.
I would like to see them work with NorCal Beverage. It gets hot in NorCal during the Summer.
MINE
Marketing in Sacramento? I have not seen that. Do you have a link?
MINE
No insider buys or sells for some time now. No evidence of company price manipulation.
MINE
Correct. Vanis also said it will not happen overnight.
1300+ retail locations and counting.
UK rollout (this month?)
Ramping up production to meet demand...
I could go on, but it's a Holiday week and many people are away on vacation.
Updates next week would get more attention.
