i actually can confirm he's in talks with #Publix, i have good friend from grad school who is on Publix corp. legal team in FL.... he did confirm that they have been in talks and actually have an NDA in place for Press Release until PK has approved inventory levels ready, i believe they also recommended to add redundant bottlers and also Publix exec team suggested the change in shrink wrap for more eye catching...
on another note, i have ask them to use their powers to query the Publix database for the product, and it is not yet listed for ordering...

Pleasant Kids, Inc. Meets Growing Demand for our Product by Adding Livie Water as a Co-Packer in Central Florida
10:34a ET August 12, 2014 (PR NewsWire) Print
NYBD Holding, Inc. (OTCPK: NYBD) Pleasant Kids, Inc. (AQUA) America's premium supplier of naturally balanced alkaline water and all natural apple juice for children is proud to announce entry into a co-packing agreement with Livie Water, Inc. of Orlando, Florida. The agreement will potentially add over 1 million bottles per month to the company's current capacity while decreasing costs and delivery times to the important Central Florida market. The increased capacity is anticipated to go into full production during this quarter. Currently, each one million unit load (depending on product mix) can generate up to $300,000 in additional revenue for the company. Our goal remains to sell a minimum of one million bottles every month.
Pleasant Kids. President & CEO Robert Rico states, "With our Where Healthy Begins marketing campaign fully underway across Florida we are already experiencing heightened demand in the marketplace. By adding a state-of-the art co-packer like Livie, we can ensure to our current and future large scale clients that added demands will be met effectively and efficiently. Adding co-packers in central Florida is just part of our efforts to be the most cost efficient bottled water company in the country. We continue to execute our strategic business plan and the increased capacity plus reduced costs provided by this agreement is another important step along the way. We couldn't be happier to be working with the team of professionals at Livie during this exciting time for Pleasant Kids." We will continue to update frequently as we begin to experience exponential growth in sales, production, and shareholder value.

PLKD Expands Facilities to meet Growing demand AUG 18:
Perfect! No worries. He has to take your request and pass it along. If you do not get a phone call in 5 days then call Publix corporate. They will follow up with fat boy and it won't be good for him... : )
You can also go to another Publix btw if it's not too far. I am going to go to a different one next week and use my middle name and a different phone number for contact. Still all true...

Its only a matter of time!!!!!
(only post allowed for today)
Very nice! Everyone should do the same. It may expedite the process & get us on the selves that much faster @PUBLIX!

I agree 100%. Must read post!
People invest some time in calls and request in Publix and maybe you will help in the process!
My Publix manager is some fat guy who is not people friendly. Rest of worker bees very friendly, but manager is a different story.
it's likely going up the chain of command for approval IMO...
Finally! I have been notified that my order shipped! Can't wait to test this product out with my family!
I do too. Everyone in FL should go to the manager at Publix and tell them you want them to order a case or 2 of Pleasant Kids Hi Alkali water 24/8oz.
I did this a month ago and Publix called within 5 days telling me they do not carry it... yet. I am going to wait a week and do it again.
$PLKD
I'm ready (smile)
NYBD will be the next MYEC. Load up and be patient.
THEN WHY DOESN"T IT GO UP? FML
I shop @ Publix every day. This is just the kind of stuff Publix would go 4 IMO.
Per the company CEO. They have had direct communication with Publix. Their product is probably at this moment being reviewed by Publix. And what's not to like? Great healthier water for kids. Just a matter of time.

Sticky this post, please!
Yes. They are really getting it now. Take care of the small things and the big ones will come. Like Publix... : )
