Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 14, 2023) - CENTR Brands Corp. (CSE: CNTR) (FSE: 303) (OTCQB: CNTRF) ("CENTR" or the "Company"), a pioneering force in the functional wellness beverage industry, is thrilled to provide an update regarding the growth achieved by the Company's distributor network in the first six months since launching CENTR Enhanced. Thanks to the efforts of the Company's selling network, including KeHE Distributors, CENTR has witnessed increased selling turnover and above-average sales velocities within both existing and new accounts.

"We are thrilled by the excitement we are receiving from both national and leading regional distributors to bring on CENTR Enhanced nootropic and adaptogenic sparkling waters into their portfolio of healthy and functional beverages," said Company CEO Arjan Chima. "From smaller regional independent grocers to mid-sized and large-scale national chains, we are continuing to see retailers expand their shelf space for these functional beverages," continued Mr. Chima.
"Increasingly, category managers for more traditional conventional chains are beginning to invite CENTR to participate in new item cut ins, outside of their planned resets and category reviews," said CENTR's head of sales Josh Rosinsky. Mr. Rosinsky indicates that "many of these buyers had the opportunity to discover and taste CENTR Enhanced at recent key annual functional beverage conferences (such as Natural Products Expo West), which prompted their engagement with CENTR to enter their channels on an accelerated basis. We are expecting similar success as we showcase CENTR Enhanced at Natural Products Expo East's Harvest Festival later this month." As a brand committed to promoting holistic well-being, CENTR will be showcasing its groundbreaking range of functional wellness beverages, providing attendees with an exclusive opportunity to experience the future of wellness firsthand.
As the Company closes out its current year and heads into 2024, CENTR is anticipating its retail account base to grow significantly as the Company executes a packed calendar for major grocery chain category reviews and resets. Notably, CENTR's docket of major chain category reviews over the coming year represents 22,000 additional retail accounts. The Company believes recent success being brought into mid-sized chain additions such as 11 Lassens high-end natural foods grocery stores in California foreshadows a high success rate for CENTR Enhanced as the Company executes on its plan.
The Company believes CENTR's continued distributor growth and advancement into major chains throughout the upcoming category review cycles will correspond to the most significant increase in distribution, geographic coverage, and total retail accounts since the Company's inception.
