Tarrytown, NY, Apr 01, 2019 — Nightfood, Inc. (otcqb:NGTF), the innovative company solving America’s $50 billion-dollar nighttime snacking problem, has announced today that Nightfood unaudited quarterly revenues surpassed $150,000 for the first time in Company history.
The majority of revenue for the quarter, which ended March 31, 2019, resulted from wholesale sales of Nightfood(R) Ice Cream. The brand quickly established distribution in 15 states within three months of manufacture of the first pint.
“We won our 2019 Product of the Year Award in the ice cream category on the strength of consumers viewing Nightfood as both unique and exciting,” explained Sean Folkson, Nightfood CEO. “Those attributes, along with a great-tasting and better-for-you product, have allowed us to expand distribution so rapidly. We expect plenty more great distribution news in coming days and weeks as we continue our national roll-out.”
Since launch, Nightfood ice cream has received national media coverage from outlets such as Fox Business, Yahoo Finance, USA Today, The Washington Post, The Food Network, Today.com, MarketWatch, Parents Magazine, and more.
“I’ve never been involved in a new product launch that was so powerfully on-trend and well received,” commented Jim Christensen, Nightfood’s VP of Ice Cream Sales. Christensen previously held the same title at global ice cream giant Unilever. During his 20+ years at Unilever, Christensen oversaw sales and distribution initiatives for such brands as Ben & Jerry’s, Klondike, Breyers and Good Humor. “The amount of media Nightfood has gotten in recent weeks confirms to me that we’re 100% dialed in to the consumer lifestyle and consumption habits.”
Management expects revenues to grow rapidly throughout the rest of the year as they work toward their stated goal of having distribution secured in 10,000 retail doors by March 31, 2020. Should the Company achieve this distribution objective, revenues by mid-2020 could be expected to approach or exceed $10,000,000 per quarter.
