Muscle Maker Inc Subsidiary, Sadot LLC, Announces Strategic Agreement Expanding Commodity Trade Routes into the Americas

FORT WORTH, TX / ACCESSWIRE / June 22, 2023 / Muscle Maker, Inc. (NASDAQ:GRIL), (the "Company" or "MMI"), is pleased to announce that its subsidiary, Sadot LLC ("Sadot"), has expanded its agri-commodity sourcing and trading operations into North, Central and South America, further diversifying the Company's geographic reach beyond its existing operations in Europe, Asia, the Middle East and Africa.

The expansion was facilitated by a strategic agreement between Sadot's agri-food operations and newly-formed Buenaventura Trading LLC ("Buenaventura") based in Miami FL. Buenaventura's team brings a wealth of experience and exposure to new trade routes throughout the Americas by adding multiple sourcing and trading consultants to Sadot with backgrounds from several of the largest international food supply chain organizations.

In order to support the expansion into the Americas and our agreement with Buenaventura, Sadot LLC has formed a new subsidiary, Sadot Latam LLC. This agreement marks a significant milestone for Sadot as it provides access to new trade routes originating in North America to markets in Central and South America. The planned Americas trade routes are intended to generate accretive value for the Company by tapping into the thriving market demand for agricultural products across Central and South America. This planned expansion is expected to further enhance Sadot's position as an emerging entity in the global commodity trading industry.

"Expanding and diversifying our trade routes to include transactions in the Americas aligns perfectly with our growth strategy," said Michael Roper, MMI's CEO. "We believe this collaboration with Buenaventura Trading and its team of experienced consultants will not only enhance our market presence but also enable us to deliver greater value to our customers and stakeholders. As we establish new relationships and new geographies, we anticipate the ability to continue to scale our revenues."

The expansion into North, Central and South America positions Sadot and MMI for continued growth as the Company grows its global supply chain business. With a strengthened trade network spanning the Americas, Sadot is well-positioned to pursue its goal of seizing market opportunities and delivering increased growth for the Company and its shareholders.
