Brooks Hamilton added: "Pacific Ventures' growth has been driven by its continued outstanding customer service and timely expansion plans across its portfolio of select assets. Since its acquisition of San Diego Farmers Outlet, a company started over thirty-five years ago to provide primarily restaurant customers in Southern California with quality food and produce, new customer accounts and a broadened selection have continued to drive sales growth while simultaneously reducing operating expenses. Seaport Meat Company, the Company's most recently acquired asset, has over thirty years in business servicing restaurant, retail, and institutional customers in the Southwest region with its USDA-licensed meat processing plant that supplies quality meats, seafood, dry goods, dairy and produce. The upcoming launch of SeaportSteak.com, a direct-to-consumer website for delivery of high-quality meat, will enable the company to be competitive in the online meat distribution space due to Seaport Meat being a direct source of meat, while driving margin and profit growth for the Company. Pacific Ventures' SnöBar brand carries alcohol infused popsicles and ice cream that replicate the distinct flavor and experience of the traditional cocktails, and the Company is leveraging its first mover advantage in this unique new product category. We look forward to working with management to communicate the immense value proposition Pacific Ventures represents based on its increasing revenue and gross margin profiles."
"Following our momentum in 2021 and increasing demand from our customers, we are highly focused on our executing across our operational expansion plans for 2022," said Shannon Masjedi, President and CEO of Pacific Ventures Group. "Our growth is expected to be driven by cross selling revenue enhancement strategies in which broader offerings lead to more sales to current customers and greater profit per stop. We expect organic growth to continue through the measures we've taken to service additional business from existing and new customers, such as redesigning production lines and realizing various synergies across our operating subsidiaries. Looking ahead, we are aggressively qualifying our pipeline of targets and evaluating new potential acquisitions of successful lifestyle businesses. We look forward to working with Brooks and the entire team at MZ Group to communicate our unique positioning for capitalizing on evolving consumer trends within the food and beverage industry, and building long-term value for our shareholders."
