PepsiAmericas Taps SkinzWraps to Assist with New Drink Campaign

Company Wraps Vehicle Fleet to Support 'airforce Nutrisoda' Beverage Marketing Campaign


DALLAS, May 2, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- SkinzWraps, Inc. (Pink Sheets:SKZW), a full-service vehicle wrapping company, today announced its ongoing relationship with PepsiAmericas, Inc. and its "airforce Nutrisoda" marketing campaign.

"Pepsi clearly knows how effective vehicle wraps are and how central they can be to a company's marketing and branding efforts," said SkinzWraps CEO, Peter Salaverry. "That's because they've done it for decades with their fleet of delivery trucks. With the Nutrisoda project, we're offering Pepsi a much more flexible and cost-effective solution with printed vinyl that allows them to wrap virtually any vehicle in their fleet."

The wraps were produced at the SkinzWraps central office in Dallas, Texas. Installations took place at the client's various fleet locations in Cleveland, Ohio; Indianapolis, Indiana; Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Olathe, Kansas; and Monroe, Louisiana. The company wrapped a total of 10 vehicles: seven Honda Elements and three Dodge Sprinter vans. An additional 20 vehicles are slated to be wrapped between the months of June and August.

Nutrisoda targets on-the-go consumers who are nutritionally aware. Each of the seven products within the portfolio contains vitamins and minerals formulated to achieve a specific benefit. The products have few or no carbs, sugar, sodium or calories, appealing to health-conscious consumers. Brand offerings include Immune in tangerine and lime flavor, Radiant in pomegranate and black berry, Calm in wild berry and citron, Focus in mango and peach, Flex in black cherry and apple, Energize in mandarin and mint, and Slender in pink grapefruit and guava.
