and shipped its first truckload of GOLD'n GRO chelated
micronutrient fertilizers to peach growers in western
Colorado.
"Registration
of the GOLD'n GRO liquid fertilizer products and the
first bulk sale in Colorado is an important step in
Itronics Metallurgical's strategic business plan involving
geographically expanding the bulk sales of the GOLD'n
GRO products into all the states that can utilize the
environmentally beneficial products," said Dr.
John Whitney, Itronics President. "The products
are cost effective to the grower and we believe that
Itronics Metallurgical will be able to market them widely
from its plant in Reno."
"Strong
demand for the GOLD'n GRO chelated micronutrient products
is driving rapid sales growth again this year,"
said Dr. Whitney. "Itronics Metallurgical is adding
two more products to its line of chelated micronutrients
to meet specific customer identified market needs. These
two new products are expected to further expand sales
later in the year."
