Winning Brands Expands Account Management for National Retailers

- California Appointment Sharpens Focus to Meet National Account Objectives -

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --

Winning Brands Corporation http://www.winningbrands.com/ (Pink Sheets: WNBD; Frankfurt: WMU), manufacturer of cleaning sensation Winning Colours Stain Remover is augmenting its national account management capability with the appointment of Mr. Stephen Fantus to Key Account Management for Winning Colours. Mr. Fantus has spent most of the past decade with the WD-40 Company in various senior management positions. These include Director of Strategic National Accounts, Vice-President of Grocery Sales and Vice-President of Mass & Drug Sales. Other business experience includes Johnson & Johnson, Rayovac and Maxell. The appointment is effective immediately and is based in Southern California where Mr. Fantus resides. Key Account Management is a combination of business development and account maintenance

Winning Brands CEO Eric Lehner explains the implications for the company and the Winning Colours brand. "As far as we are concerned, Winning Colours Stain Remover is headed to become a household name in America. Winning Brands has demonstrated unusual clarity of purpose in its actions as an emerging enterprise. This realism includes the preparations necessary to do business with America's largest retailers, not merely desiring it. We already have arranged sufficient capacity to manufacture for the national retail demand curve. We have recently committed to launching national DRTV advertising in 2010, thus introducing Winning Colours Stain Remover to Americans coast-to-coast and building brand awareness. Now, with suitable operational management being assembled, we are arranging that the ensuing work with national retailers will be handled professionally and in accordance with industry norms. We are creating the conditions for success to be the natural outcome of our work. People who follow Winning Brands will not be surprised, yet people who are not familiar with the company may one day suddenly notice that we have arrived on the national scene 'out of nowhere,'" Mr. Lehner observes

Mr. Fantus adds, "My experience in a VP of Sales role servicing many of the USA's largest retailers will provide a solid foundation in working with Winning Brands Corporation. Additionally, I have been responsible for placement and management of products into multiple retail departments (hardware, household products, general merchandise, pet, etc.) and trade classes (grocery, mass merchandisers, drug, etc.). There is no doubt that this is a great match for my role at Winning Brands. I have made the career choice to focus on building success for an emerging brand. This is my next great challenge in life. I know what it is like for a product to become an American icon - and I love the feeling. Winning Colours Stain Remover has what it takes. I am going to help make it happen." Mr. Fantus' responsibilities will include assessment and coordination of existing Winning Brands national account activity in cooperation with Winning Brands' existing sales team
