JACKSONVILLE, Fla., March 2, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mariner's Choice International, Inc. (Pink Sheets:MCII), a North American manufacturer of eco-safe products today announced that it has delivered an initial order to a large refrigerated warehouse and distribution center. The customer has a network of 35 centers, with overall refrigerated warehouse space of nearly 10.0 million square feet serving major markets throughout North America.
The customer works under strict guidelines for maintaining its facilities.

As required by the customer, the products are listed with a government food inspection agency. Successfully completing the approval process has enabled the products to be further assessed by the customer for company-wide acceptance.
"This opportunity opens doors for marketing our high-performance products into the extensive food storage and distribution facilities market," stated Amie Hingston, president and CEO of Mariner's Choice. "We are expanding our reach once again by developing new business segments through private label partners."
