Seattle, WA, Sept. 07, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NewMediaWire -- Baristas Coffee Company/Munchie Magic (OTC:BCCI) announced that its revenues in August from its Munchie Magic restaurants delivering Ben & Jerry’s ice cream, beer, wine, hard alcohol, and other snacks has reached an all-time high. 

August’s revenues surpassed the previous record set in March 2021 by nearly 8% and more than doubled from the same period in 2020.  The record revenues are due largely to additional sales of alcohol, yet ice cream remains the No. 1 selling product. 

During the Month of August Munchie Magic opened 6 additional locations and expects to open 5 more during September. 

Barry Henthorn, CEO, stated: “We are seeing an increase in repeat business as well as record new customers from our top locations. There is no doubt that the addition of alcohol has made an impact; however, our top location continues to grow by increasing its ice cream and late-night snack sales and does not yet offer alcohol. Early numbers indicate that September may be even better.”
