"With our refreshing, enhanced and healthful sparkling waters in every Stater Bros. location, VitaminFIZZ has been successfully placed in virtually every targeted key account in Southern California. We have achieved many milestones up to this point, and we are confident our recent corporate restructuring and acquisition of 100% of VitaminFIZZ will be instrumental in our continued growth and expansion in both strategic scope and market penetration.”
