Marani Brands Inc. (MRIB)

Then I called a handful of those places to get their feedback on the product.
Couple places said the product is not Gray Goose bc is pretty new but its starting to get more attention and exposure. However, the great majority of places i called, believe is a totally under priced bottle and people love it! They love the taste and the way the bottle looks like.

Would you please give the names and phone numbers of the establishments you called that you claim confirmed they currently serve Marani vodka? This would allow others to verify your claim.

Revealing the names and phone numbers of the establishments you referred to as "the great majority" of those you called who you say believe Marani vodka is a totally under priced bottle and people love it! would likely be most helpful in the verification process.

You also claim that the "great majority" of establishments you called told you that patrons love the taste and the way the bottle looks like. It seems odd that bar patrons would comment on the "way the bottle looks." Did the "great majority" of establishments you called simply happen to say that patrons mentioned not only the "taste" but the appearance of the bottle?

When searching the "Find Marani" link for CA, literally several hundred stores and establishments are shown. Given that the company is supposedly just not about to restart operations after over 3 years of dormancy, it seems unlikely that all of these stores and establishments are currently stocking Marani vodka.

Additionally, it seems unlikely that the extensive list, just for California -- let alone the rest of the nation, was ever accurate given that the gross sales reported for the 12 months ended June 30, 2010 was a mere $402,373 and was only $168,058 for 12 months ended June 30, 2009 as reported in the last MRIB financial report filed with the SEC before going dormant (see page F-3):

My local Ralphs supermarket as well as the Ralphs near my parent's home in Newport Beach, CA 92660 are both on the Marani website list of stores but neither carries it.

It's my suspicion that none of the stores and establishments listed on the "Find Marani" website link currently sell the brand. I also suspect that based on the paltry past sales, that few on the list ever sold it.
