It is.... In Mexico!!

I imagine the cost of putting Speed Energy on shelves at WalMart in the domestic USA market is a bit high right now. But keep buying Speed.. I read somewhere sometime that "demand equals supply"...

RGM should live by the acronym "AMP"

Always
Moving
Product
I believe AMP is a competing energy drink.
Live by SPEED (insert clever acronym meaning here). You don't want to advertise for your competitors...
Selling Product Equals Exponential Development
But I used quotation marks...
I'm sure Robby wishes they were in Walmart's too! My guess is SPEED is trying to get in Walmart and every other big chain store.
I believe Walmart / Target & KMart stores have specifics you have to meet to get a product in their stores. They did a whole segment on CNN about companies that have gone bankrupt because they were "forced" off shelves by competitors buying their shelf space out from under them.

They interviewed a former owner of a cookie company that had been in business over 75 years and was forced off shelves by Nabisco buying their space out from under them.

RGM offers a unique branding incentive by placing companies in motorsports with advertisement in exchange for shelf space. That works for 7-Eleven, Food City, Harris Teeter, and other companies like that, not sure if that works with Wal-Mart, Target & K-Mart. Target has a team they sponsor in Cup, so that might be a dead end. Wal-Mart doesn't need the advertisement. K-Mart would be the only possible opportunity. Of course, most of us have no idea about the food & beverage marketing structure. I'm basing my opinion off what I've seen & read about. Just glad GNC carries it. That's a huge national chain.
Well here's something I didn't know until recently, Christopher. Walmart stores can order product like SPEED on an individual store basis. So if you know somebody, who may know a buyer at your local Walmart, tell them to get on the SPEED Train. Hell, put the word out anywhere you want to see it stocked.
