Scottsdale, Arizona, September 05, 2013 -- Vemma Nutrition Company was named the winner of the People's Choice StevieŽ Award in the 2013 American Business Awards, in the category of Best New Health or Pharmaceutical Product. This award recognizes the public's favorite new products of the year, with 20,000 votes from the general public determining the winners. The product with the most votes in each of the 34 categories is declared the winner. Verve Bold, which was launched in January, has sold nearly 5 million cans since its release and has helped double the company's sales in year-over-year growth.

'You can't fake public opinion,' commented Vemma Executive VP of Marketing and Branding Mark Patterson. 'So getting voted as the best new health product of 2013 is significant for Verve Bold. It's even more outstanding when you consider that Vemma is relatively small and new on the block.'

Vemma Nutrition Company, which has seen record-breaking sales for two years in a row, will be formally recognized and presented with a crystal People's Choice award trophy at The American Business Awards' new product & tech awards banquet in San Francisco in September 2013.

'Verve Bold is the most successful product launch in Vemma's history,' commented Vemma Founder and CEO BK Boreyko. 'This year, we purchased $5.5 million dollars worth of new manufacturing and canning equipment to keep up with sales. We're delighted that Verve Bold has such a strong following and that it won this coveted award.'

Company sales forecasts continue to be good for Vemma, with two more ready-to-drink products hitting the market in the next six months: a ready-to-drink vanilla latte and an iced tea.
