jojoBAR(TM) to Be Placed in More Than 200 Shaws Supermarkets

SAN DIEGO, March 1 /PRNewswire/ -- Just a year removed from its international debut at the 2006 Natural Products Expo West trade show, the gourmet organic food bar jojoBAR is set to become available throughout one of the largest supermarket chains in the Northeast, the bar's inventors announced Friday.

According to jojoBAR co-founders Justin Hai and Dr. David Barold, the bar will be available in over 200 Shaws supermarkets, a chain located in the New England region, by the spring of 2007. This distribution deal comes less then one year after its introduction. By the spring of 2007 the gourmet organic food bar will be available in over 800 stores, up from 150 in '06.

"It's been an amazing year," said Hai. "A year ago we were handing out samples to anyone who would take them. Now we're on store shelves across the nation. We knew it would take off, though. It's a tribute to the simple combination of real food, real nutrition, and real taste."

The bar currently comes in three healthy, delicious flavors: Chocolate Cashew, Peanut Butter & Jelly and Mint Chocolate. The founders will be debuting two new flavors at the 2007 Natural Products Expo West trade show.

jojoBAR founders Hai and Barold will appear at Expo West's Fresh Ideas Organic Marketplace on Thursday, March 8, from 12:30 - 5 p.m., as well as Friday through Sunday at Booth #4166 at the Expo Main Event.
