AVT's New RAM 5000 Dispensing Centers to Significantly Increase Company
Revenues; Backlog in Demand for the Unique Product

CORONA, Calif., May 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- AVT, Inc. (formerly
Automated Vending Technologies), Pink Sheets: AVTC, today announced that the
first production shipment of its RAM 5000 dispensing center is now in transit
from its overseas OEM factory.
The announcement follows a visit to the factory by James Winsor, AVT's
Director of Engineering and Manufacturing, who confirmed the first production
units completed all final quality assurance and testing requirements and were
being prepared for shipment to AVT's facility in Corona for distribution.
"Based on feedback from the recent NAMA trade show, we are confident that the
distributors, operators and end-users will be well pleased with our newly
designed product with its advanced high-tech features," said Jake Caulfield,
AVT's Vice President of New Product Development.
"Our product is so popular, based on the demand from the NAMA show earlier
this year, that this shipment will not meet the complete demand. That's a
good kind of problem to have," said Tommy Buzbee, AVT's National Sales Vice
President. The RAM 5000 systems with remotely programmable digital signage
capabilities are especially in demand and will significantly increase AVT
revenues in 2008. The state-of-the-art dispensing centers include an option
to add a LCD Screen Display allowing for advertising of products in the
dispensing center which can potentially double a location's gross revenue.
"We will also need to increase our next quarter shipments from our OEM
manufacturer to meet the demands in the marketplace for the balance of the
2008 calendar year. This increase in RAM 5000 sales will also increase the
number of systems that are part of our unique AVTi Media network," Mr. Buzbee
concluded, which in-turn will add to AVT's net bottom line.
