Tarrytown, NY, Feb. 10, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NewMediaWire -- Nightfood, Inc. (OTCQB: NGTF), the company pioneering the category of better-for-you nighttime snacks formulated for better sleep, today announced that Nightfood ice cream has secured distribution in all Market of Choice store locations.
Market of Choice, located in Oregon, is the first retail chain to add the brand through Nightfood’s new natural product distributor announced in late January. Market of Choice features eleven upscale stores that deliver a wide and carefully curated selection of the finest and freshest conventional, natural, organic, and health-conscious products at affordable prices.
“Market of Choice is a perfect example of a retailer we previously wouldn’t be able to service directly, but with whom we can thrive together thanks to our expanded third party distribution infrastructure,” remarked Nightfood COO Jenny Mitchell. “Upscale, affordable, on-trend, and committed to serving their dedicated local communities. We’re thrilled to be adding more independent retailers to our distribution mix.”
Nightfood recently announced its first distribution through United Natural Foods Inc. (UNFI) in the Pacific Northwest. In addition, Nightfood is available through KeHE, C&S Wholesale Grocers, and Vistar. Along with Market of Choice, Nightfood’s recently expanded distribution infrastructure has led to the addition of the brand in individual locations of other chains since January 27th, including Porters, Corner Market, and Piggly Wiggly.
“It’s been a fantastic beginning to 2021,” commented Sean Folkson, Nightfood CEO. “We’re at the start of a very busy news cycle in what I believe is shaping up to be a transformational year for Nightfood in many ways.”
“We’re excited to add Nightfood to our assortment,” commented Deby Maus, the frozen foods manager at Market of Choice. “I think a nighttime ice cream for better sleep is something our customers can relate to.”
Market of Choice will be starting with four of the top-selling Nightfood flavors: Cookies n’ Dreams, After Dinner Mint Chip, Midnight Chocolate, and Milk & Cookie Dough.

Nightfood is not just for pregnant women. Over
Nightfood was formulated by sleep and nutrition experts with ingredients that research suggests can support nighttime relaxation and better sleep quality. Scientific research indicates unhealthy nighttime cravings are driven by human biology. Willpower is also weakest at night, and stress is another contributing factor. A majority of night snackers report feeling both guilty and out-of-control when it comes to their nighttime snacking.
Because unhealthy night snacking is believed to be biologically driven, and not a trend or a fad, management sees significant opportunity in pioneering the category of nighttime-specific snacks for better sleep.
MJ Munchies, Inc. was formed in 2018 as a new, wholly owned subsidiary of Nightfood Holdings, Inc. to capitalize on legally compliant opportunities in the CBD and marijuana edibles and related spaces. The Company is seeking licensing opportunities to market such products under the brand name “Half-Baked”, for which they’ve successfully secured trademark rights.
