Vega Picks Tennessee Firm to Assist with Construction of Biomass Plant in
Georgia

LONDON, June 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- VEGA PROMOTIONAL SYSTEMS, INC. (Pink
Sheets: VGPR) today announced it has chosen Chattanooga, TN based consulting
firm, Tennessee Power Company, Inc. to assist the Company in building a
biomass production facility in Georgia.  

Vega recently announced its intention to build a biomass plant in Georgia to
take advantage of the abundance of biomass materials in the State's Bioenergy
Corridor.  Georgia ranks third in the nation as a potential source of
renewable energy.  Approximately 50 million tons of Georgia's own timber ends
up in the State's wood-products manufacturing plants every year and the
industry returns nearly half of it in the form of primary mill wood debris.

Vega's Business Plan calls for manufacturing facilities to be constructed in
various locations around the world.  The Georgia plant would be the Company's
first in the United States and would serve as a model facility for other
plants in the U.S. 

Biomass or biofuel is material derived from recently living organisms. This
includes plants, animals and their bi-products. For example, manure, garden
waste and crop residues are all sources of biomass. It is a renewable energy
source based on the carbon cycle, unlike other natural resources such as
petroleum, coal, and nuclear fuels.  The use of biomass fuels can therefore
contribute to waste management as well as fuel security and help to prevent
global warming

The Company markets various products including energy efficient pellet fuel
made from organic waste bi-products using unique and innovative ideas combined
with proven technology.  The Company's current expansion includes building
manufacturing plants in various international locations that will produce
biomass products and bio-diesel products for power generation units.  It is
estimated that in the next five years the biomass industry will become a $20
billion industry.
