I can not say that the two posters are not somewhat correct. On the other hand... A group like wholefoods has a lot of local touch and interaction... they are nothing like walmart. So, when a decision comes down about a probuct they are specifically going to carry at their store... I would say they should know about within a few months. Are you then saying that any asian contracts should take 2-3 years from signing to fruition? My whole foods that I visit each week does not carry it at all yet... I go down each and every isle while spending a boat load in that store. Furthermore, the manager of the store was contacted first by phone about it (no response)... then by e-mail (response that there are no plans to carry this product), then I gave her the PR (NO RESPONSE AT ALL). I am just concerned at this time frame. 2 months after PR, not even known by the manager of the store there are plans to carry... this could take a year - or longer?
