Steven L. Tilton, CEO, commented: "We are very pleased with the 31.7% growth that we saw during 2007. We've shown consistent and substantial sales increases each year since opening for business in 2003. Wholefood Farmacy stock is a great value for those who can see the continuing increase in the demand for convenient, delicious, healthy food. Twenty years ago the bottled water industry was virtually nonexistent.
As consumers became more aware of unhealthy chemicals and pollutants in the water supply, they demanded a healthier alternative. Those with the foresight to invest early have done very well.
Today, consumers are becoming more aware of the dangers of junk food and fast food and the long list of chronic diseases that they cause. People everywhere are searching for answers and we have what they need-healthy convenient foods that can replace the junk food and fast food. This will prove to be the largest mass consumer shift that we've seen in decades. The Wholefood Farmacy's business model of Direct Selling is perfectly positioned for stable, long term growth."
