IRVINE, Calif. (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) March 12, 2008 -- ShotPak, Inc. (Pink Sheets:SHTP) today announces that the move from individual ShotPak (the shot without the glass) pouch sales to the new trendy multi-six-pouch pack has been accomplished by the Beverage Pouch Group, the owners of the ShotPak brands.

Charles Murray, CEO of the Beverage Pouch Group, commented, “The new multi-six-pouch pack has many benefits for the stores, ensuring greater control and less theft. There are also benefits for the environment with a low carbon footprint and for the consumer with lower prices. We decided that as St. Patrick’s Day was the start of the spring party season, we would use regional talk radio to reach our target market, the over 21 demographic. There was no doubt that Frosty, Heidi and Frank on CBS Radio’s KLSX 97.1 The FM Talk Station was the best team to start a lively discussion about the brand in its new multi-six-pouch pack.”

The ShotPak cocktails new lower alcohol formulae address’ many of today’s concerns, which allows the consumer to control exactly the amount of alcohol consumed and ensures no counterfeit product substitution.

Bill Marin, President of ShotPak, Inc adds, “There is no doubt that CBS Radio’s KLSX 97.1 The FM Talk Station’s adult talk radio show has a very strong position and following from loyal listeners who are often trapped in Los Angeles traffic and who use their cell phones to explain their needs or feelings. Their show has a live 'party around a product' segment where they invite all listeners and local law enforcement to contribute to the lively non scripted discussions that occur around all the featured products. Although their radio show is broadcast live in Los Angeles, they find that many of the listeners are tuning in from their computers on the Internet at www.97.1freefm.com.”

The new multi-six-pouch packs will be available throughout the listening area and Classic Distributing & Beverage Group, who launched the original ShotPak singles, will once again ensure region-wide distribution.
