It looks like last week's announcement with Pitbull was just the beginning of Max Sound's music download empire building.  MAXD unveiled its newly redesigned music store, Liquid Spins. Liquid Spins offers instant access to one of the most extensive collections of digital DRM free music on the web today.

BarFresh Food Group, Inc. (BRFH), a manufacturer and distributor of unique ready-to-blend beverages, including smoothies, shakes and frappes, today announced that it has opened distribution and received its first order from the Sysco Corporation. 

This is very big news for BRFH for three reasons:

Nothing goes good with summer heat like an ice cold smoothie, and Barfresh is making sure people know this. Their partnership with Restaurant Link has led to their latest conquest in Detroit, where they have been approved for roll out to the San Marcos Group, a 25 unit quick service restaurant ("QSR") chain.

Check out this exclusive interview with Riccardo Delle Coste, CEO of Barfresh Food Group (BRFH) and learn how their pre-packaged smoothies are going to take the country by storm.

We first reported about BarFresh scoring this huge QSR account with 3,000 franchise locations back in November. Now that big play is paying off. At the 25th Annual Roth Conference, Barfresh CEO Riccardo Delle Coste announced that flavors have been approved and test markets have been selected by the premiere QSR chain. Residents in San Diego, Houston and parts of Canada will be able to try out BarFresh’s Smoo® products early spring.

Barfresh Food Group announced that it has signed a marketing agreement with RestaurantLink to market Barfresh Smoothie products to RestaurantLink's thousands of foodservice clients. The agreement will help ensure that Barfresh’s  Smoothie products will get a higher exposure to the market and increase revenues.

BarFresh Food Group, Inc. ( OTCQB : BRFH ) ("BarFresh Food Group," "BarFresh" or the "Company"), our pure play manufacturer and distributor of unique ready to blend single serving smoothies and blended beverages, announced it has entered into a comprehensive set of agreements with one of the largest QSR (quick service restaurant) chains in the country with >6000 locations.

As usual, the QSR restaurant chain CAN’T be identified today; it’s a matter of competitive advantage for their new client.

The Smoothie Wars are heating up...and our #1 consumer trend is making BarFresh the go to player for quick-service restaurant (QSR) chains to get into the game. 3000 stores is a MAJOR win...at an average of 90 smoothies a week, that’s 270,000 smoothies a WEEK when the chain is fully up and operating next year. Multiply 270,000 by 52 weeks times $.50 wholesale price per ready-to-blend Smoo TM smoothie...and this is a $5 million+ deal.

You may not know it, but smoothies are NOW the new gourmet coffee in the quick service restaurant (QSR) world. NBT is finishing an updated research report on BarFresh Foods and the quick version is...BRFH single serve smoothie drinks are positioned VERY similar to how Green Mountain Coffee became a dominant player in the individual coffee dispensing world.

BarFresh Food Group (BRFH) announced another national client for their unique smoothie product line today. It’s a national casino chain with over 40 casinos and 40,000 rooms…which probably means the MGM hotels since no one else owns/runs 40 casinos in North America OTHER than MGM.

Barfresh Food Group Inc. (BRFH), the manufacturer and distributor of unique ready to blend smoothie beverages, announced its first sale of products to food service retailers in the US. NBT Equities Research believes this is just the first of many deals to come for BarFresh…the smoothie trend is only getting bigger. Our conversation with management and quick service restaurant (QSR) consultants adds to our conviction that there are VERY big deals ahead for BRFS…their value proposition is just too valuable.
