Naturally Iowa Featured as Only Food and Beverage Exhibitor at the 2008 USDA BioPreferred(SM) Showcase Conference

Naturally Iowa, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: NLIA) announced today that the Company was featured as the only food and beverage exhibitor at the 2008 USDA BioPreferred(SM) Showcase Conference, where the Company was only one of twenty companies in the United States selected to participate.

The invitation to participate in the conference was only extended to companies that can help the USDA "meet the challenge that Congress has set for us -- to increase government procurement and use of biobased products" (source: U.S. Department of Agriculture). Naturally Iowa is currently the only dairy in the world that produces Ingeo™ bottles, which are made from plants, not oil.

"Naturally Iowa was very well received at the 2008 USDA BioPreferred(SM) Showcase Conference," said Richard Jensen, Plant Operations Manager for Naturally Iowa. "We believe that this conference gave the company tremendous exposure as the only dairy company in the world producing biobased Ingeo™ containers." "This conference was an outstanding forum for networking with officials from the GSA and procurement officers," said William Horner, President and CEO of Naturally Iowa, Inc., "and it gave us a roadmap for taking advantage of the BioPreferred program as we move forward with our plans to aggressively market to the Federal Government."
