BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., Aug. 31, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Barfresh Food Group, Inc. (OTCQB:BRFH), a manufacturer of frozen, ready-to-blend beverages, is announcing the completion of a successful test with a national 300 unit frozen yogurt chain, one of the fastest growing self-serve frozen yogurt chains in the world. The next phase of the national roll-out for the chain has now been approved to expand to 60 units within the southeast.  This roll-out will be supported by outdoor billboard and in-store marketing that will exclusively highlight the Barfresh products.

Riccardo Delle Coste, the Company's CEO stated, "This customer is a perfect fit for our Barfresh products with its focus on frozen treats and we see ourselves as a natural complement to their existing offerings.  Traditionally, self-serve concepts would shy away from the frozen blended beverage category given the inherent waste and labor challenges, but with Barfresh’s delivery system these concerns are eliminated.  Our products allow franchise operators the perfect blend of incremental profitable sales growth with extremely limited capital expenditures.  We are proud to work with a company that is so well known for bringing positivity to their local communities and look forward to growing alongside this proven company.”
