    That store locator will be a nice addition. I don't want to complicate things but will the store locator also include Swedish Match's B&M database?

    I'd like to make a distribution suggestion, go after the truckers. Get your truckers to be snus ambassadors and get some distribution agreements with Truckstops of America, Flying J, Sheetz etc.

    The thing with most of these brick and mortar stores, especially convenience stores, is that they usually buy their tobacco from one distributor. The key is getting in with the distributors, because if it's a large corporate chain, they will ONLY buy from their distributor. The distributors are the key here. The trucker idea is something that I have considered and I'm currently working on a strategy. I'll keep everyone posted.

    Thanks again for the well wishes, and Chad...I love ya, in a non-gay...totally hetero kinda way, lol Also, if any of you do have B&M stores that you want to see us in, then find out who they buy their distributor is and PM me the info.

        Rick, congratulations on this finally being made public! You've been working your butt off for the last year and it's great to see everything finally come to launch time.

        Best of luck to you and Northerner Distribution. It's great someone is FINALLY making a genuine and aggressive effort to expand Real Snus to American brick and mortars. No one could do the job here better than you.

        Sincerely,

        Larry

            Congrats Rick,
            This makes your comments about the distribution plans for Northerner over at SC much more meaningful.
            I say come to California! Specifically Southern Cal. A large but not too large area where there are a lot of people using the Camel and Marlboro crap.

              Congrats Rick! Now we need to organize some lobbyists to head to DC and light a fire under this left-wing government's collective ass's to slide swedish snus & nasal tobacco into the "cigar" category of protected species in an effort to offer "Reduced Harm" to the masses as a healthier alternative as opposed to smoking cigs and chewing on fiberglass!

              ;-)

                  Alright Rick.

                  Since all those photos of you in a dress are already on the internet, no one can blackmail you either.

                  The "other" pictures we got are gonna cost you.....
