Korres has partnered(licensed) with Johnson & Johnson Company. This means Johnson & Johnson can start selling Korres all over North America. You might start seeing it at your local drugstores,grocery stores, or any other place you see other Johnson & Johnson products being sold (Wal-Mart,Target,CVS).

What do you think about this? Do you like that Korres will be easier to get, or did you like its Prestige label where it wasn't a household name?
