CSP announces winners of fifth-annual retailer-choice competition

OAK BROOK, Ill. -- Innovation rarely takes a holiday. That 's evident by observing the high degree of new flavors, packaging and overall consumer-friendly attributes that make up the 39 winners of the fifth-annual Retailer Choice Best New Products contest. This year 's products, rolled out between Aug. 1, 2007, and Aug. 1, 2008, drew the most votes CSP has received during the five years of the contest.

The candidates were narrowed to a list of three in each category and chosen over the course of two weeks in online voting. Kudos to all the retailers who voted for their favorites; the contest [image-nocss] would not have been possible without your participation.

CSP congratulates all the winners.

For full descriptions of each of the winning products, see the November issue of CSP Magazine.
