Powder.
This
product
was
first distributed through drug stores in the
states of
North Carolina,
Georgia and Florida as a test operation
to determine if the sales would repeat over a period of time without
benefit of advertising.
The success of this .test led to the expansion
of sales to include the states of Virginia and South
Carolina.
During 1948 the company spent $60,980 on preliminary advertising
and sales, promotion designed to establish regional salek representation
and wholesale distribution outlets.-As a result, the services of seven
leading sales agencies contacting the retail drug trade in 34 states
were
secured, with ..wholesale drug outlets numbering
126. Despite
the fact that the primary objective of the company during 1946 was '
Dhe establishment of
such distribution rather than immediate con¬
sumer sales, the product sales totaled $29,585.
In
1947, the company set as a further preliminary objective the
establishment of distribution of the product in the dominant chain
drug store organizations. .: The objective of the company has been
accomplished by the effecting of distribution and promotion of Meritt
Medicated Powder in the leading chain drug stores.
The company has been made the exclusive distributor to drug stores
in the United States for Florida Fruit Products Co. who produce frozenconcentrated orange juice.
Several large contracts with chain drug.'.
Stores have already been signed.
