“We’re thrilled to receive this nomination; this is a very exciting time in XYIENCE’s history,” says John Lennon, XYIENCE’s president. “Distribution of Xenergy continues to grow throughout the U.S. and it has developed a loyal consumer following that is making it a top contender in the energy drink category.”

Winners will receive a trophy, exposure in ads in top industry magazines, online recognition at Bodybuilding.com, and exclusive rights to use the Award of Excellence logo in Web and print promotion. In 2010, more than 315,000 votes were cast for the award series.
