• In 1988, the office in Southern California was opened to expand on the established private label and minor-branded business; this office is staffed solely by Kevin C. Lavin and operates independently.
• Also, in1988, we expanded with a joint venture with a Brokerage Company in Puerto Rico, Antilles and Associates.
• These expansions have created new categories as well as greatly expanded out business through our four full-time representatives on the island.
• In 1999, we further expanded our sales and marketing reach to Western Europe by opening an office in Geneva, Switzerland in conjunction with Incanex Corporation of Geneva.  This is headed by Gerard Cannio who has a life-long background in sales and marketing.
