Nightfood Ice Cream Signs First Major Regional Distribution Agreement With New England Ice Cream Corporation

Tarrytown, NY, Jan. 28, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NEWMEDIAWIRE -- Nightfood, Inc. (OTC: NGTF), the ice cream company solving America’s $50 billion-dollar nighttime snacking problem, has announced a distribution agreement with New England Ice Cream Corporation (NEIC).

The relationship covers distribution throughout the states of Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Rhode Island, and Connecticut.  Playing a pivotal role arranging this agreement was Nightfood’s own Jim Christensen, former VP of Ice Cream Sales for global ice cream giant Unilever (owners of Ben & Jerry’s, Breyers, and the more recently acquired Talenti).

“This is the first of many distribution announcements we expect throughout 2019 as the national roll-out is now underway,” commented Nightfood CEO Sean Folkson.  “We look forward to a strong and profitable relationship with New England Ice Cream.  They’re as excited to get started as we are.”

The multi-year Agreement gives the Nightfood brand immediate access to thousands of distribution outlets throughout New England.  Investors can learn more about the NEIC distribution network and their other brands at 

“We started hearing the industry buzz about Nightfood last month and it’s a fascinating brand with a ton of potential,” explained Michael DaPonte, Executive Vice President of New England Ice Cream.  “We believe Nightfood clearly has what it takes to be a huge hit in 2019 and beyond.”

“I’d like to publicly commend Jim for putting this deal together,” continued Folkson.  “This is a tremendous step toward our goal of securing distribution in 10,000 retail locations by this time next year.”

The Company will receive a significant purchase order in the first half of February in conjunction with this agreement.  In addition to direct sales efforts to major regional and national retail chains, the Company is in discussions with other regional distributors across the country as it continues establishing Nightfood distribution from coast to coast.

In an update to previously reported information, the Company has also received the initial purchase order from its first major regional supermarket chain.  It was originally reported that the chain would be placing Nightfood in 100% of their locations, as that’s what was reported to management by the account broker in October.  The Company has been notified that the product will be launched in approximately 40% of the locations to start.  The product will hit shelves in February, and performance will be evaluated over the summer prior to inclusion into the remaining locations.
