VANCOUVER, May 2, 2018 /CNW/ - GLOBAL GARDENS GROUP INC.
(THE "COMPANY") (TSXV: VGM) is pleased to announce that
the company projects its year-to-date sales revenue to have
increased approximately 110% vs prior year. Full and final
second quarter and year-to-date results will be reported in late
May.
"Our growth continues to progress quarter after quarter" states
Rob Harrison President and CEO,
Global Gardens Group Inc. Mr. Harrison adds, "Demand for
Veggemo continues to grow. This growth has been fuelled by
customer demand and increased brand awareness. We have
invested into three critical marketing platforms to reach targeted
consumers where they are. This includes investment into
social and digital media, targeted sampling and at key consumer and
industry trade shows in the U.S., Canada and China."
Mr. Harrison also emphasises that these estimated sales
numbers represent the Veggemo shelf stable products sold in retail
stores and through various e-commerce platforms only and this
segment is approximately 20% of the overall non-dairy beverage
category volume. The refrigerated product segment sold in the
dairy cases of grocery stores represents about 80% of category
volume and Global Gardens Group is targeting its Veggemo launch in
this segment in early 2019.
Today Veggemo can be found in approximately 5000 retail
outlets.
