Here's another way to put the possibility of $90M revs ( +50% rev growth/ year ) into perspective. The majority of LWAY's revs have come from health food stores. They've been in supermarkets of Jewels and Dominiques in the Chicago area for a while, but only recently started into Whole Foods, Wild Oats, Dierbergs, Albertsons and possibly Schnucks. Say 75 supermarkets nationwide this year. Add +50% a year in supermarket growth: 1999 ----- 112 2000 ----- 168 2001 ----- 252 2002 ----- 378 2003 ----- 567 2004 ----- 850 Hell, Albertsons alone now has 1000+ stores. Several more distributors signing on in August, increased advertisement spending, someone hired to head up marketing, new collaborations/products coming. Tell me we can't be in only 850 supermarkets in 6 years. Dont' think production capacity is going to be a problem. Steve ÿ
