GPOPlus+ Announces Over 320% Increase in 4th Quarter Revenues
Main driver is New "White Glove" Service Model Now Active in 100+ Retail Locations with an additional 116 locations to be added by the end of August 2023.
LAS VEGAS, NV / ACCESSWIRE / July 6, 2023 / GPO Plus, Inc. (OTCQB:GPOX), a technology driven company specializing in the development, manufacturing, and distribution of consumer products for specialty retailers including convenience stores, gas stations, smoke and vape shops announces a significant milestone with an increase of over
The primary engine of the accelerated revenue increase is the successful deployment of our new "White Glove" Direct to Store ("DSD") service. This new service includes new point of sale displays for our flagship brand "The Feel Good Shop+" and "Mr. Vapor", yielding the greatest lift. To efficiently implement the new DSD service program GPOX creates "Mini Hubs" that are supported by a Regional Distribution Hub in Lubbock, Texas.
Brett H. Pojunis, CEO of GPOX commented on the exceptional results stating, "We are incredibly pleased with the results and feedback from our retail partners. Our strategy to provide a best-in-class, state-of-the-art, technology driven approach to direct store delivery ("DSD") has proven there's an extraordinary opportunity to capture additional market share. Convenience stores typically obtain
Mr. Pojunis continues: "The success of our new service program has already prompted our retail customers to request additional product offerings. We are capitalizing on this demand by allocating all resources needed to roll out to 319 retail stores quickly and efficiently. With the introduction of our Mini Hubs, GPOX also has the opportunity to add other specialty retailers in that region as well as recruit outside sales reps and Independent Sales organizations (ISO's). Furthermore, GPOX receives valuable point-of-sale data, allowing us to optimize our product mix and introduce higher margin "white label products" such as our Yuengling Ice Cream Gummy line, increasing both top line revenues as well as unit economics. Truly exciting times for our team members, retail partners and shareholders."
As previously reported, with the new program GPOX is seeing a lift in monthly sales per location activated from
Currently, GPOX services approximately 570 stores across 12 states centralized in the Southwest and Midwest regions of the United States. The Company has already identified 316 locations approved for the new program, with approx. 100 currently active. The next 116 stores in Dallas, Texas, Austin, Texas, and Albuquerque, New Mexico will be activated before the end of August 2023. We aim to activate an additional 103 stores in Wyoming, Kansas and Missouri marketplaces by the end of October 2023.
Once the Company opens a Mini Hub, sales teams actively looks to add additional specialty retailers (gas stations, smoke shops, vape shops, and liquor stores), with a goal of each Mini Hub servicing 100 to 150 locations. This equates to an initial goal of 1,000 to 1,500 retail locations to be supported by the Regional Hub in Lubbock.

With our strong partnerships, licenses, expanding distribution network, and a focus on innovation, we are poised for continued growth and to create long term value for our stakeholders.
