Smokefree Innotec Product Subject of New Zealand Focus Group Testing
NASHVILLE, TN, Nov 03, 2009 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
Smokefree Innotec, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: SFIO) today published feedback
from a Product Focus Group that distributor Bryant West in New
Zealand recently facilitated to gather consumer response to Smokefree
Innotec's "totally smoke-free cigarette."
The 2.5-hour focus group test of the "REAL Smokefree High-Tec
Cigarette" took place the 22nd of October 2009 at Bryant West's Head
Office in Auckland, New Zealand. Participants were divided into 4
groups, on average including 3 - 4 heavy smokers and 4 - 5 moderate
smokers from the wider Auckland area and selected from a broad and
diverse social demographic.
In particular, Bryant West was interested in the group's product
absorption, the effect of the product on the end user, the ease of
product usage, the proposed costs of the product as well as the end
users perceived benefits and concerns of "REAL -- the 1st Smokefree
High-Tec Cigarette."
In general, the participants in those focus groups agreed that REAL
is a viable solution and smoking alternative. The moderate smokers in
the focus groups reported that they believe that the product will
greatly aid in changing their smoking habits. 85% of the participants
believed that the effects of REAL where comparable to normal
cigarette smoking and 70% reported that they would actively use the
product if available as a consumer item. Interestingly, all
participants, from heavy smokers to low usage smokers all freely
commented on the positive after-taste of Smokefree Innotec's "totally
smoke-free cigarette."
Brendan Jackson, CEO of Bryant West, commented: "The Product Focus
Group testing indicates that REAL is a positive commercial product
with a viable consumer market and we're looking forward to launch the
product in our territory."
