In addition, the Company anticipates to see big revenue growth in Q2 with its beverage brands and has forecasted out production in 2022 to keep up with demand.

Gold Leaf Distribution, the Company’s distribution subsidiary, continues to be a bright spot within the Company and has experienced unprecedented growth as it becomes one of the largest distributors in South Carolina. Gold Leaf now distributes to Target, Quik Trip, Piggly Wiggly, IGA, and soon-to-be other big box and grocery stores. To keep up with growth, Gold Leaf continues to hire personnel and purchase delivery trucks.

We are on track to have our first million-dollar quarter and laying the foundation for even bigger growth in Q2.”

The Company’s 16 oz Ooh La Lemin Lemonades, available in 4 flavors, will be included in modular sets in all stores with 12 ft or wider coolers in select states starting in June of 2022. The Company will announce which states at a later date as it gets closer to launch.
