Açai Roots™ Makes Appearance at BEVNET Live 2009 Winter Event

San Diego, CA, January 11, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Açai Roots™ presence in the Winter 2009 BevNet Live edition (hosted in Santa Monica, California on December 2009) confirmed the company’s first açaí shot, nex4 Açai Energy Shot, to be a success.

The event in Santa Monica included the attendance of the industry’s top brands, as well as hot new companies joining the beverage segment.

Açai Roots nex4 Açaí Energy Shot was a hit among the attendees due to its delicious taste and one-of-a-kind characteristic.

“We received a lot of positive feedback at BevNet Live. We knew from the start that a healthy and natural energy shot, which besides having a delicious taste, does not give the consumer a head-rush and sudden crash, would stand-out”, said Marketing Manager, Rodrigo Correa.

Açai Roots’ nex4 Açaí Energy Shot is ideal for health-conscious consumers; the energy shot provides a healthy & sustained energy boost, without causing a head-rush and a sudden crash - typical in most energy products in the market. Nex4 is packed with antioxidants and vitamins derived of pure ingredients - including açaí, acerola, guarana and green tea, making it not only extremely enjoyable but also very healthy.

Next4 ready-to-drink formula is shelf-stable and is packaged in individual 2 oz shot size bottles (sold per unit at retailers or in a 12-pack through the company’s website). The formula is also available in a 32 ounce bottle.

Grown atop Amazon River palm trees, the açaí berry is considered nature’s number one super-food based on its immense amount of antioxidants, healthy essential omegas, fibers, protein, calcium, vitamins A, E, and B6.

With the addition of another success in its unique açaí product-line, Açai Roots now aims for a very strong 2010, when the company is expected to continue its explosive growth.

About Açai Roots
Açai Roots™ is a San Diego-based company that supplies Amazon-grown açaí products. The company was founded in 2005 by 3 native Brazilians who, upon finding the açaí available in the United Stated disappointing, decided to bring the real deal for their own consumption.

What began as something targeted for themselves, rapidly expanded. As Brazilians and Americans friends tried the açaí they were importing, these 3 guys started to receive orders from their own friends, and soon from the friends of their friends; and this is how Açai Roots was created. As the company began to grow, the founders continued to be committed to their original objective: "bring the delicious, authentic and healthy Brazilian-style açaí to America, along with its lifestyle."

Not just the berry, the lifestyle.
Açai Roots’ products are made from natural wild crafted açaí berries harvested from the Belém region in the State of Pará, where Brazil produces its "cream of the crop" açaí. The company manufactures and distributes a full line of pure açaí berry products formulated to exact standards by native Brazilians. Açaí Roots is dedicated to supporting the sustainable harvesting of açaí berries in the Brazilian Amazon to help protect the rainforest and support local communities in Brazil.
