I'm not that up to date on New York (all the landmarks, train stations, ports, etc.)...but you had me a little confused - first with mention of Penn station and as if "something' was considered certain there, which I don't 'see' confirmation of that yet.

First with this post

In addition to the 50,000 samples they are handing out at Penn Station in December



followed by original

subject to procedural details being agreed, with a target launch window of January. Procedural details include, amongst other things, participating in a sampling program at Grand Central Terminal and Port Authority of New York locations. Winning Brands has already manufactured and paid for 50,000 new “PocketPaks” for this purpose, which Winning Brands holds in inventory. The arrangement would also include the installation of Winning Brands custom display racks for 4-ounce bottles, holding 48-bottles each, in the stores. However, until the arrangements are actually in place, they are still in the realm of being an update on progress only.

Nov 24th:

The current plan is to have the 4oz display boxes located at the checkout lines in those stores – probably approximately 100 for starters. [does that include a display rack or just on the counter? - per some images of stores, looks like on counter imo, little room for display racks there imo]

[that's it at the moment - no mention of sampling program as yet (formally)]

But something of advertising/marketing is likely to be included in some agreed to capacity imo.

Grand Central Terminal

Now, The Heart of New York City

Completely restored back to it's 1913 splendor, Grand Central has become a midtown destination for five exquisite restaurants and cocktail lounges, 20 casual international eateries in the lower level Dining Concourse, gourmet foods from the Grand Central Market and the 50 unique specialty shops throughout the concourses, all in to addition to transportation.

Grand Central has also transformed itself into a venue for ongoing public events. Throughout the year, Vanderbilt Hall, the Terminal's 12,000 square foot former Main Waiting Room, is the site for ongoing free promotions and entertainment ranging from tennis exhibits to the annual Holiday Fair which brings 72 craftsmen, artisans and international importers to the Terminal selling an outstanding array of merchandise for holiday gifts.

Bus Port Authority - New York

Located just a block from Times Square in west Midtown, the Port Authority Bus Terminal is the largest and busiest bus terminal in the United States. With a steady stream of over 200,000 commuters, visitors and residents each day, the Terminal offers a variety of bus carriers and transportation options, as well as stores, delis, and restaurants.
