LOS ANGELES, Oct. 3, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Drinks Americas Holdings, Ltd., ("Drinks") (OTCBB:DKAM), a leading developer and marketer of beverage products, is pleased to announce that its award winning KAH® Tequila has received national placement at Cost Plus World Market ("Cost Plus"), with Halloween display inclusion in the states where Cost Plus holds a spirits license.
"Cost Plus is a major player on the national retail radar, and we are very pleased they have decided to carry us," stated Joe Belli, National Sales Manager for Drinks. "If last year was any indication, we expect depletions to be very high this time of year. Consumers love the award-winning taste of KAH® Tequila and its exciting packaging, including its 50ml package, which Cost Plus has decided to carry. Each 50ml bottle is handcrafted and unique, creating excellent repeat business. We are confident Cost Plus will do a great job, and we are very excited to reach consumers by having KAH® offered by this outstanding retailer."
In 1958, Cost Plus opened its first store in San Francisco's famed Fisherman's Wharf. The store quickly became a destination for those who craved original and handmade items from around the world. Items were sold at cost, plus 10 percent - hence the name Cost Plus World Market! More than 50 years later, it's still their passion to discover extraordinary finds from all over the world and make them accessible to all. Their everyday low prices and high-quality original items are a great value. There are over 259 Cost Plus World Market stores nationwide, and they are always open online at worldmarket.com.
