Winning Brands Corporation (Pink Sheets: WNBD; Frankfurt: WMU) www.WinningBrands.ca, manufacturer of stain removing sensation Winning Colours Stain Remover, has taken its first step to doing business in the Republic of South Korea with the launch of the first of several planned on-line internet discussion blogs with Korean consumers http://kr.blog.yahoo.com/long3624/1003.html as well as the appointment of Winning Brands Ambassadors to South Korea, Mr. Joel Haley and his wife Sojung. The blogs will foster conversation amongst Korean consumers and will be updated frequently to reflect developments of the Winning Colours launch in Korea. Distribution of initial inventory for market tests will commence by January 2010. Initial product placement will include a variety of store types that have already been identified. The stores will receive Korean labeled bottles with the name 1000+, as Winning Colours is known in non-English markets internationally. The Korean market will receive the same attention and focus as Australia and New Zealand have received in the South Pacific - two markets that are already gaining traction as Winning Colours gains new fans in the region.

Joel Haley is originally from Texas but has lived in South Korea for 17 years, including enlisted service with the U.S. military with engagements in Iraq and Afghanistan and subsequent provision of aviation maintenance contracting to the military. "I have a longstanding personal interest in international trade, including commodities of various kinds. Based on my considerable research I am impressed with the opportunity for Winning Colours Stain Remover in Korea," Mr. Haley remarks. His wife, Sojung, was raised in the City of Wonju in South Korea. She is managing the on-line discussion with Korean consumers. Together, they will coordinate the development of distribution and retailing partnerships for Winning Colours from Korea itself, full time, effective immediately. "I agree with Joel about the potential here. South Korean consumers are increasingly interested in the best possible cleaning results and are open to the arrival of new brands, particularly from North America. I have personally experienced how gentle Winning Colours Stain Remover is to my skin - Koreans will love this benefit. I look forward to introducing my country to the next generation of cleaning power for the whole home - in a single bottle!" says Mrs. Haley.

Winning Brands CEO, Eric Lehner, points out why the development is a logical extension of Winning Colours' growth in the Asia/Pacific region. "Winning Colours Stain Remover is highly concentrated, and therefore delivers the necessary value to make shipping to any major market feasible. South Korea, with nearly 50 million inhabitants, efficient communications infrastructure and an impressive economy is a desirable place for new exposure only a few hundred miles from Beijing, capital of China. This will provide important additional Asian experience to Winning Brands and help us to develop momentum here. With such a versatile cleaning product as Winning Colours/1000+, a wide range of consumers in Korea will find their own favourite uses and share their findings with friends and family. Word will continue to spread. Winning Colours/1000+ is a world class product."

Winning Colours Stain Remover is already listed by Canada's national retailers (where it was developed) and is gaining ground in the USA because of its versatility in dealing with drips, drops and disasters of all kinds. Winning Colours is making news in key consumer sectors where stains occur continuously and easy clean-up is important. The paint sector, the wine sector and others have shown strong interest in the unusual property of Winning Colours Stain Remover to be gentle on skin and delicate surfaces while still performing with the strength expected of harsher traditional stain removers. The fact that Winning Colours converts even oil based messes into a simple clean-up with plain water has addressed consumers' increasing desire for convenience in all matters.
