China Organic Agriculture Acquires
"Xiaoxinganling" Trademark, Announces Plans to Enter Distribution of
Soybeans, Kidney Beans and Mushrooms
Oct 27, 2008
China Organic Agriculture, Inc. (OTCBB: CNOA), a diversified food
products company capitalizing on China's consumer revolution, today
announced plans to further diversify its range of products by
entering into the distribution of soybeans, kidney beans and
mushrooms. China Organic has concurrently signed an agreement to
acquire the trademark ¡°Xiaoxinganling,¡± an organic brand name in
China¡¯s northeast.
China Organic¡¯s wholly owned subsidiary, Ankang (Dalian) Agriculture
Ltd., will acquire the Xiaoxinganling trademark from Jiayin County
Daming Agriculture Byproducts Co. Ltd. (¡°Daming Agriculture¡±), along
with the distribution channel of several premium food products. For
the past seven years, Daming Agriculture has been the sole legal
owner of the Xiaoxinganling trademark, which is typically associated
with select soybeans, kidney beans and mushrooms.
"We are excited to announce China Organic¡¯s plans to further
diversify its range of products,¡± said Jinsong Li, Chief Executive
Officer of China Organic Agriculture. ¡°China Organic has continued
to diversify through acquisitions, now offering a spectrum of
premium food products that will soon include soybeans and
mushrooms.¡±
Jiayin County is located in the Xiaoxing'an Mountains and is the
birthplace of the Chinese red pine. This area¡¯s green land is free
of contamination and is rated as one of the finest environments for
organic farming in China. Products distributed from the region
generally have a strong competitive advantage in the organic food
industry.
¡°By acquiring the trademark China Organic aims to utilize
Xiaoxinganling¡¯s brand awareness to further expand our premium line
of food products,¡± said Mr. Li. ¡°We look forward to entering these
new distribution channels for soybeans and mushrooms. China Organic
is actively setting up business permits in Jiayin County so that we
may begin distributing our new product offerings.¡±
