BARRIE, ONTARIO--(MARKET WIRE)--Nov 28, 2008 -- Winning Brands Corporation (Other OTC:WNBD.PK - News)(Frankfurt:WMU.F - News) www.WinningBrands.ca reports that it has finalized mutual operational commitments with Wings & Ink merchandising services group www.Wingsink.com to implement a "Best in Class" in-store merchandising program to take Winning Colours Stain Remover sales management to the next level with key national accounts in Canada, which currently include Wal-Mart, The Home Depot, and Canadian Tire amongst others. With a National Field Team of over 1,000 Field Representatives, Wings & Ink is in a position to implement Winning Brands' oversight of planogram integrity for store convenience, best product presentation, accurate ordering, keeping shelves faced and tidy, noting low inventory sites for fast reorders and providing in-store product knowledge to store staff. The development is significant for Winning Brands and its business plan because it represents Winning Brands' emerging "National Brand" standard of excellence in the practical aspects that govern growth of sales and reputation amongst "national retail banner" category of business partners. The net effect of such programs has been shown to be enhanced sales per store for mutual benefit with the retail partners. Such measures take the professionalism of the business relationship with such retailers to the highest level - "Best Practices". This is key for Winning Colours Stain Remover because it is being positioned to become North America's favourite stain removing product.

The custom designed Winning Colours Stain Remover In-Store Ambassadorship Program will provide experienced, detail oriented field representatives to stores in an expanding arc of target markets, commencing with the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), North America's 5th largest city after Mexico City, New York, Los Angeles and Chicago. Field communications for the Winning Brands program will include live web reporting for quick and accurate reaction times. Information will include the results of Field Audits by which Winning Brands will ensure a consistent level of quality to its in-store presence and dispersion of product knowledge amongst store staff. Through such means Winning Brands is developing the internal infrastructure to partner with any national retail banners in Canada and the United States. Following the initial audit visits, continuity visits will address in-store staff turnover, new Point of Purchase opportunities and cross promotions for mutual benefit with the retail partners. The initiative coincides with an enhanced Winning Colours Stain Remover media plan for the GTA market to be unveiled week of December 8, 2008.
