DNA Brands, Inc., a proud sponsor of many action sport teams consisting of top athletes from Motorcross, Surf, Wakeboarding and Skateboarding has received TV and media coverage resulting in product placement at Walgreens, CVS, Race Trac and Circle-K throughout Florida. DNA was also selected as the preferred energy drink and meat snack by Anheuser Busch's Strategic Business Alliance (SBA) covering Florida.

Marks added, "We are now achieving sufficient growth and have added enough PODS (points-of-distribution) to implement the advertising phase of our business plan, which includes the use of cable television, radio and print to a lesser degree.  This funding initiative, when completed, will allow us to accomplish our goals for 2011 and beyond."
