Jan. 4, 2012 - PRLog -- LAS VEGAS- XYIENCE has increased its retail presence in the United States in a deal with GNC, the leading retailer of specialty nutrition products. This means that up to 1,550 GNC stores around the U.S. will carry 16-ounce cans of Xenergy Premium Mango Guava, Cherry Lime, Cran Razz and Xenergy Xtreme Fruit Punch. Another 300 GNC franchise stores also have the opportunity to carry sugar-free Xenergy, which is the official energy drink of the UFC.
