PRESCOTT, AZ -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 05/04/06 -- Produce Safety and Security International, Inc. (OTC: PDSC), ("PDSC"), an ozone and chemical sanitation disinfectant process supplier to the food and medical industries, is please to announce that the Company is in negotiations with a major distributor based in Nashville, Tennessee, that supplies fresh and frozen produce to the Food Service, Governmental Agencies, Retail and Cruise Ship Lines in the southeast.

Mr. Jerre Maxwell, Executive Vice President and COO for Produce Safety, will handle the negotiations and logistics from Produce Safety's procurement and sales office located in Fresno, California. Mr. Maxwell will propose to the distributor a complete Food Safety Process by employing its EPA Registered Spherequat products and Ozone Process that will assure extended shelf life and protect the distributor's fresh and frozen produce against food-borne illness pathogens. In addition, Mr. Maxwell will propose to the distributor Produce Safety's Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) program aimed at providing a loss reduction and comprehensive inspection program, with an audit trail.

The proposal will include Produce Safety's ozone spray wash process and a third-party chemical analysis test and review before being delivered to sanitized containers in an ozone sanitized storage area. Each lot is chemically tested for E. coli H157, Salmonella and Listeria before being delivered to the client in a certified ozone sanitized truck. Produce Safety is able to monitor the produce all through the food chain providing an audit trail for possible food illness outbreaks in the chain. The process provides a maximum food safe product to the end user that meets the regulations of the FDA, USDA, HACCP and APHIS.

Clarence W. Karney, Chief Executive Officer of Produce Safety & Security International, Inc., states, "The Food Safety Process is ready for immediate implementation for the Fresh Produce Industry." Maxwell and Karney both agree that this process will provide the client a cost savings in sanitation procedures, while extending the shelf life of the produce that will provide the client a 35% average increase in revenues per line item of product.
