SHISHI, China, Dec. 1, 2010 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- China Marine Food Group Limited (NYSE Amex: CMFO) ("China Marine" or the "Company"), a China-based manufacturer of Mingxiang(R) seafood-based snack foods, "Hi-Power" marine algae-based beverages, and distributor of frozen marine catch, today announced strong sales of its "Hi-Power" beverages during October and November 2010.

Sales of China Marine's "Hi-Power" beverages were $2.5 million and $3.0 million in October and November, respectively, driven by strong re-ordering from current distributors.

"As an emerging beverage company in China, enticing shoppers to make initial purchases is vital to building a loyal consumer base. Such promotions have been successfully deployed with our distributors since we re-launched "Hi-Power" with new packaging and positioning as a healthy beverage in January of 2010. We have received steady re-orders from our "Hi-Power" distributors over the past two months and also witnessed healthy growth in our snack food business in the fourth quarter. We anticipate a strong finish to 2010," Liu concluded.
