Nationwide Beverage Bottling Corporation Enters Second Week of Shipments of Bottled Water to Hurricane Katrina Victims


CORONA, Calif., Sept. 12, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Nationwide Beverage Bottling Corporation (Pink Sheets:NBVB) announced today that it is entering the second week of its production and shipment of bottled water in support of the efforts of FEMA and the Red Cross to assist victims of Hurricane Katrina.

Steve Rice, President and CEO of Nationwide, stated, "We are continuing around-the-clock production to complete the FEMA order for approximately 675,000 gallons of bottled purified water and will continue to do so until the needs of the victims of Hurricane Katrina are fully met. At the same time, we are expanding production of our own proprietary water and water-based products as well as co-packing of non-proprietary products. Just recently we initiated co-packing of Wild Mist Fortified Water on behalf of Sports Pouch Beverage Company and By Quinn International and are shipping this product to Albertsons' West Coast stores."

Mr. Rice added, "We are confident that our immediate growth plans will permit us to continue to operate the third 8-hour production shift even after our commitment to fulfill the needs of the Hurricane Katrina victims is no longer required. Our anticipated completion of a number of pending production contracts will make this goal a reality and will reflect just another step in our strategy to establish Nationwide as a national leader in the beverage bottling industry."
