FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

           AZUR INTERNATIONAL ANNOUNCES COMPLETION OF CAPITAL RAISE &
                           PURCHASE OF SHELL LANDING


FORT LAUDERDALE, FL, November 4, 2005 - Azur International, Inc. (Other OTC:
AZRI.PK; Frankfurt Stock Exchange: LCN.DE), a luxury residential and resort
development company, today announced that it has raised $6 million in project
financing to partially fund the Company's property acquisition and development
initiatives, along with general working capital requirements. Concurrently, Azur
closed on the purchase of Shell Landing, a 1,200-acre resort development outside
Biloxi, Mississippi. This real estate, contiguous to the Shell Landing Davis
Love III golf course already owned by Azur, will supply the Company with a land
bank of up to eight years of developable property. The purchase price for Shell
Landing consisted of cash, promissory notes, the issuance of Azur common stock,
and certain contingent consideration based on future sales and rentals of
portions of the property. The property was also acquired subject to its existing
mortgage. Complete details of the financing and its terms are set forth in a
Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 4, 2005.

Don Winfrey, President of Azur International, stated, "This is a significant
achievement for Azur. By finalizing this capital raise, we are able to proceed
with the purchase of prime real estate outside of Biloxi and commence
construction of additional homes, condominiums, and apartments. Shell Landing
provides Azur with a land bank that can be developed for nearly a decade on the
shores of the Gulf Coast, near the Florida panhandle. As the region recovers
from hurricane Katrina, we believe Shell Landing will be in a position to
provide housing and luxury amenities to local residents and individuals looking
to come and enjoy the region's well-known fishing, golf, gaming, and resort
accommodations."

Carl Crawford, President of Azur Shell Landing Resorts, Inc., added, "Azur has
completed the design work for its 200-unit luxury condominium complex - the
Islands at Shell Landing - and construction is slated to begin by February 1,
2006. The Islands will be a gated complex with amenities including a large pool
and spa, putting green, snack bar, and fitness center with sauna. Residents will
have access to the Davis Love III golf course at Shell Landing, as well as the
planned Racquet Club. A majority of the Island units are pre-sold, and we look
forward to breaking ground in the near future."
