Exhibit 99.1
 
Shiner International, Inc. Announces Results for the First Quarter of 2011
 
HAIKOU, China, May 16, 2011  Shiner International, Inc. (Nasdaq: BEST) ("Shiner" or the "Company"), an emerging global supplier of packaging solutions for food, tobacco, and consumer products, today announced its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2011.
 
Shiner reports revenue of $15.9 million and an operating profit of $1,205,392 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, which is an increase of 37.3% in revenue, compared to $11.6 million for the same period in 2010. This increase was mainly a result of increased sales in flexible packaging materials, which increased by 53.8% to $14.6 million from $9.5 million from the first quarter in 2010. In addition, revenue from biaxially-oriented polypropylene (BOPP) tobacco film increased 94.1% to $8.0 million from $4.1 million, revenue from color printing segment increased 141% to $1.7 million from $0.7 million, and revenue from coated film increased 5.2% to $4.9 million from $4.7 million.
 
The increase in revenue was primarily caused by two factors: an increase in domestic product volume and an improvement in our sales prices.  Approximately 82.2%, or $13.1 million, of our total sales in the three months ended March 31, 2011 were made domestically to companies in China.
 
Management Comments
 
Mr. Qingtao Xing, the CEO and President of Shiner stated, "We are excited about our promising growth in the first quarter of 2011. We believe this solid growth is the result of solid and healthy operations. We are also glad to report that the 2011 first quarter revenue from flexible packaging material has increased 53.8% compared to the first quarter of 2010."  
 
Mr. Xing further stated, "We continue to believe that our growth is based on the capability of our QC system and the production inspection system, which will enhance the safety of incoming raw material in order to satisfy the specified product shelf life at the end. We have been efficient in providing packaging solutions in order to meet the market demand for extending product shelf life. We currently plan to set up six sales facilities domestically and eight sales facilities worldwide. Overall, our healthy financial operations have encouraged us to continue to grow in the international marketplace."
 
Mr. Xing continued, "Our goal is to increase the sales volume both domestically and internationally. We have been working on the basic construction and sales network build up with the followings actions:
 
We have imported a state-of-the-art BOPP production line from Europe which is made to fit our capacity to produce high quality anti-counterfeiting film and coated film. Bank of China has provided us with financial support for this BOPP line purchase. We plan to install this BOPP line in the second quarter of 2011. This new production line will increase the production efficiency and the production quality to achieve the cost reduction measures needed to be more competitive in the marketplace.
 
We have also established a sales company in Shanghai to provide service to the Chinese food packaging industry and to food processing manufacturers.
 
With all of these efforts, we believe that we can be a leader in the increasing food packaging industry and grow in the international marketplace.
