NEW YORK, Feb. 6, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- 1000+™ Stain Remover, World's Most Versatile Cleaning Solution™, www.1000Plus.ca  is headed to the UK consumer market for the first time. 1000+ is manufactured by Winning Brands Corporation WNBD www.WinningBrands.com.  The first authorized importer and retailer in the United Kingdom is Repair Products Ltd, www.repairproducts.co.uk, located in London, England. The initial shipment will be dispatched to the UK within weeks.

The 1000+ Stain Remover to be sold in the UK is a Bio-Based version of the product developed through Winning Brands research and development. It meets all current European Union requirements.  All 1000+ Stain Remover deliveries in the world will be Bio-Based in due course.  With this development, Winning Brands moves its European Union product experience from the informal market testing stage to commercial transactions at the consumer level.  Serbia, which is not currently a member of the EU, was the first European market to commercialize 1000+ Stain Remover, where it has been well received in 2011.  

Winning Brands' International Sales Manager, Daniela Relja, comments: "We are grateful to our Winning Brands Product Ambassadors in the EU. They have been anticipating the arrival of 1000+ to the European Union with real enthusiasm. We've received positive feedback during informal trials in the EU and are glad to be moving forward.  With a population of 500 million, the European Union is a market with vast opportunities for us.  Today's development is a solid step forward."

Winning Brands' CEO, Eric Lehner, remarks:  "We have been interested in Europe for several years but wanted confirmation, through various means, of whether Europeans are as likely to enjoy the versatility of 1000+ as our fans in North America.  Both in Serbia with retail sales and the EU through informal testing it has become clear that 1000+ can be popular there too.  With our first authorized retailer in the UK, we've officially "landed" in the EU.   It's gratifying to see things ramping up for us in Europe now."  Mr. Lehner maintains a weblog for the benefit of Winning Brands shareholders in which these developments and others of interest to shareholders are discussed:  www.WinningBrandsCorporation.com/blog.
