I don't think we want them to expand outside of the current Walmart situation. In the interview BW addressed this very issue, as Walmart could overwhelm a company, especially one like Bebevco. Remember Walmart, while huge, is only one facet of this company's growth plan. If there is Europe and Australia, Canada in the works, Walmart will plan a slow methodical rollout, IMO. Heck, this company hasn't even begun the airing of the commercial in SC. Like many have stated on this board, patience is the key here.

I disagree, I think we will see Koma start popping up in new walmarts sporadically for now.

Disagree. We will see an incremental progression of states coming on board....either one state at a time, or a region of states. Its all about sales and product. Walmart has never carried a relaxation beverage before, and Koma Unwind is its first. Its uniqueness is a powerful motivation for Walmart to get behind imo.

If sales are as good as they have been reported, and 3rd quarter numbers will show, more states will come on board. Its only been 6 weeks since it went into the SC stores, and there has really been no major marketing. Walmart is involved with the new commercial that is coming out at the end of the month, and this lends credence to Walmarts interest in this product. Once the commercials roll in SC, we will see more movement into other neighboring states.

The biggest problem on this board is that many want everything done yesterday. Lol. Thats not how it works in the business world when it comes to getting a product into the public eye and onto shelves. It takes time. Once again, KU has been in all 78 SC Walmarts ONLY 6 weeks. Patience is key here and as the 4th quarter comes and go, we will see Koma Unwind in many more Walmarts in other states imo.

Just a thought, but where do you suppose Walmart gets the products they put their brand on? Same as name brand, just labelled for Walmart...very common practice in many industries.
