NERD Expanding in Midwest

"Focus and energy" beverage partners with Central Beverage
SAN ANTONIO, Texas -- NERD Beverage Corp., the developer of NERD, which it calls the first "focus and energy" beverage, is expanding across the Midwest.

"Our current goal is to take our successes that we've had in the South with our top-tier distributors and mirror them across the Midwest. We are [also] very happy to have partnered with a Class A distributor like Central Beverage, who has the ability to take great brands and make them a big hit in the Chicago area," said Vin Montes, CEO of NERD Beverage.

NERD was originally created by a University of Texas college [image-nocss] student Vin Montes in order to help him focus and stay awake while studying late nights at the library. Before attending medical school, Montes began selling NERD from the back of his pickup truck to local c-stores and around campus. He left medical school to serve as NERD's CEO.

Montes said NERD's formula contains four focus/memory enhancers (Vinpocetine, Huperzine A, DMAE and Chinese Ginkgo Biloba) mixed with a strong energy blend.

NERD Beverage engages in the development, marketing, sale and distribution of NERD beverages in the United States and internationally.
