  SAN DIEGO, CA, Apr 22 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
San West Inc. (OTCBB: SNWT), an emerging leader in the sales of
recreational vehicles including Motorized Scooters, ATVS, UTVs, and
Buggies, announced today that management is now aggressively searching
for a new Orange County, CA retail location.

    The new brick & mortar location would be focused primarily on further
accelerating sales of San West's burgeoning motorized scooter offerings,
as well as its traditional selection of high performance buggies. San
West Inc. management is now in the final stages of negotiations with a
number of prime locations and intends to announce an agreement within the
next 30 to 90 days.

    All potential targets possess a variety of essential characteristics
including favorable historical financial performance, high volume and
highly targeted traffic areas, meaningful potential for near-term
expansion, and proximity to major highways, as well as popular local
power-sports areas. Management feels strongly that Orange County
represents one of Southern California's largest and most lucrative
power-sports markets and believes that building a local presence will
play a crucial role in positioning San West to greatly enhance sales of
scooter products in addition to the rest of its offerings.

    Orange County, CA Represents a Key Target Market for San West, Inc.

    Millions of Californians enjoy power-sports annually, creating a
multi-billion dollar market opportunity. Many participants call Orange
County home and it makes perfect sense for San West Inc. to position its
most popular and high potential offerings towards the region.

    Riding opportunities in the area are robust and more diverse than many
other parts of Southern California, leading to stellar recreational
vehicle participation rates and healthy sales of related goods. In
addition to the multitude of consumers migrating east into the desert
each day during the Spring and Summer months from Orange County to
popular nearby destinations such as Glamis Dunes, Barstow, and Ocotillo
Wells, the region boasts a robust selection of local riding
opportunities. For example, the 460,000 acre Cleveland National Forest --
the southern-most National Forest in California -- provides a variety of
terrain approved for power-sports participation.

    "Right now, we're actively pursuing agreements that we feel hold the
potential to help San West drive sales of its thriving motorized scooter
offerings in Orange County, CA, a key market for the product," commented
San West President and CEO Frank Drechsler. "Over the past year, we've
bolstered our position both online and throughout the key desert areas of
the Western United States -- the main playground for recreational vehicle
aficionados in that part of the country. Now we are taking additional
steps to reinforce our brick-and-mortar presence to augment our growth."

    Mr. Drechsler concluded, "Many of our motorized scooter products can be
operated legally on public roads at very high fuel efficiency, as well as
off-road, and I believe that establishing a retail presence in one of
America's hottest markets represents the missing link in our near-term
growth strategy. At this point, I'm excited to note the progress we've
made thus far and hope to issue an update highlighting our progress in
choosing a new Orange County location in the coming weeks."
