WNBD Is Still on the Move: Awarded Listing by Home Depot Canada! September 12, 2006
Wall Street News Alert's "stocks to watch" this morning are: Winning Brands Corporation (PINKSHEETS: WNBD), Clorox Company (NYSE: CLX), Yahoo! Incorporated (NASDAQ: YHOO) and St. Joe Company (NYSE: JOE).
Winning Brands Corporation (PINKSHEETS: WNBD) is going to have the attention of aggressive investors and day traders this morning! Yesterday after the stock markets closed, the company issued a press release announcing that The Home Depot Canada is awarding Winning Colours Multi-Cleaner® a national listing and qualification under Home Depot's Eco Options program.
This news should excite investors! The Home Depot is the world's largest home improvement specialty retailer with 2,082 retail stores in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, 10 Canadian provinces and Mexico. Eco Options is an initiative by The Home Depot to give consumers fresh environmentally friendly product options for their home using products that improve energy and water efficiency, air quality, reduce toxicity for a healthier lifestyle and save money.
Winning Colours Multi-Cleaner® is an advanced clean-up solution that converts oil based messes into simple clean-up with plain water amongst many uses. It will be carried by Home Depot Canada's Paint Department but packaged with instructions for use in many household applications because of its kindness to skin and the environment. The decision by The Home Depot follows successful in-store market testing of Winning Colours Multi-Cleaner® across Canada.
Wall Street News Alert is continuing to place Aggressive Investors on alert to monitor the progress of Winning Brands Corp! Winning Brands Corporation CEO Eric Lehner was asked whether this development will lead to a listing by The Home Depot in the USA. He replied, "It has been our policy to take things one step at a time and avoid predictions about things beyond our control. Winning Colours Multi-Cleaner meets the needs of North American consumers in all regions. We will continue to work hard to earn the respect of consumers and retail partners wherever they are. I would rather focus on doing a good job for our partners and letting things take their natural course."
Previously, Winning Brands Corporation reported the commencement of shipment of its products to other markets outside North America, notably in Europe, China and India, giving the company effective representation on three continents beginning in the third quarter 2006.
Prior to the latest press release, the stock closed yesterday at around Nine cents a share
