LOS ANGELES, Aug. 18, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Barfresh Food Group, Inc. (the “Company” or “Barfresh”) (OTCQB: BRFH), a manufacturer of frozen, ready-to-blend and ready-to-drink beverages, today announced that it has expanded its education program to an additional 100 school locations throughout multiple states, including California, Minnesota, Texas and Washington. These 100 schools are spread out across five school districts and form a collective student population of 67,000 students, with the largest school district serving over 32,000 students. Barfresh has already taken orders and began shipping to many of these new locations, as administrators begin to prepare for the reopening of their schools.
Barfresh is well-positioned within the education channel with a full suite of beverage offerings at various price points, including it’s WHIRLZ 100% Juice Concentrates, Twist & Go, and 1:1 Bulk Easy Pour. Barfresh’s new Twist & Go offering dramatically increases the Company’s growth opportunities even if schools do not fully re-open 5 days a week supporting any form of back to school opening this upcoming school year.
Riccardo Delle Coste, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We rolled out Twist & Go at the end of last school year and with this latest announcement are expecting to serve the product regardless of a school partially or fully reopening this upcoming school year. We are thrilled to be able to add this new offering to our line-up and expect its initial success to continue as we believe we will be adding many additional school districts and hundreds of new schools in the near future. We are on the road to continued success in the education channel and look forward to working with new and existing schools this year.”
Dustin McHale, Assistant Food Service Director of Victoria ISD stated, "Most of the yogurt products we receive are lacking in flavor but Barfresh offerings are by far the best we have ever tasted. We had a few of our administrators and students try them and their reaction led others wanting more. These products are very good and we are excited to be able to offer something new and flavorful to our student body this upcoming year.”
