Game Changers
How to Make Sure the Buck – & Bison, Ostrich & Quail – Stops with You
You’ve built a better burger, flirted with fresh fish and perfected your primo pasta. What’s next in the continuing quest to pique today’s insatiably adventurous palates? Welcome to the gamification of the menu, a surprisingly affordable and accessible hunter-gatherer’s delight.
Bison, buffalo, boar, ostrich and duck are no longer outside of the box, and even exotica like yak and kangaroo can make an occasional cameo without blowing up the budget.
“Diners are looking for alternative sources of protein that are healthy and different. There’s a real groundswell of chefs driven by quality, wanting to meet that demand by using items that are not mass-produced,” says Justin Wiernasz, President, Gourmet Foodservice Group. His company has stepped up to offer hundreds of specialty products to operators looking to differentiate themselves, with meats like ostrich and wild boar, providing a particular point of divergence.
“The two trends that we’re all witnessing in foodservice — healthy and natural, and raised with sustainable practices — are integral to game meats,” explains Wiernasz. Ostrich, for example, fits neatly into the healthier eating movement with its cholesterol-free properties and rich beefy taste. In fact, ostrich is so revered by two physicians that they worked with Wiernasz to found a 100-acre blueneck breeding farm in the Florida Everglades. “We found ostrich to be the best and healthiest red meat available on the planet,” they state proudly on their website at EvergladesWildGame.com. Specifically, the blueneck ostrich, emphasizes Wiernasz, because the more commonly seen blackneck was raised for its plumage and hide, with meat not much more than an unimpressive byproduct. While admittedly an expensive item, the end result of these specially raised animals may well be worth the higher price if marketed with vigor.
“If you’re going to make this buy, it’s a huge opportunity to distinguish yourself from the restaurant down the block,” says Wiernasz. “You can charge slightly more and still be within the customer’s price point for a signature dish that they will find amazing.”

I am no fortune teller, but IVFH seems to be bringing in a lot of talent and partnerships to this company, my prediction is that cheap shares will not be around for very long.
Holding on tight for this ride. GLTA!

I agree FREE publicity Is always good, I read in a past article that when they got a mention on TV, that TFD had a huge spike in business. Maybe that has happened again in this quarter.
Don't forget that IVFH is presenting today and tomorrow on the West Coast...

Hey Geo, if I can recall I remember Sam saying something about phase one of their project to build TFD up should be starting in September. Maybe something is starting to happen behind the scenes. I believe this was mentioned in the last CC? Or maybe this was just way oversold as it usually is. Best regards.

Welcome back, I hope you are coming back with good news. This company has changed a lot since you left.
The Billion Dollar Food Delivery Wars
I like this story, The fresh Diet is not even mentioned here, yet they are one of the largest in this arena, maybe not in dollar value but in nation wide coverage. Can't wait until this little company gets discovered.
http://techcrunch.com/2015/07/11/the-billion-dollar-food-delivery-wars/?ncid=rss&utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+Techcrunch+%28TechCrunch%29
Geo, It's an enigma to me as of who is selling down at this level. However the buyers are appreciating whoever it is, there have been some large buyers stepping in whenever the price drops a bit. In my opinion anything under $1.30 is a steal. I wish I knew what is really going on behind the scenes. I guess if I knew something it would not be investing, all investments involve risk.
Geo, That is cool that you are making a few dollars while we wait for a big move. My problem is that I am afraid to sell at these levels, my luck would be, that if I sell a few shares, and that I would never get back in at a fair price, this stock could easily double from here over night with some good news.
I know you made some nice cash on this stock, and you also know about the true potential of this stock. Nice to have you here.
Good luck to you and I hope we all can make some money here.
Best regards!
Very nice to see that the business is expanding, and they can also do it with bank loans, very nice!
A very nice article, good to see that we are getting more eyeballs on the stock. When this thing starts to move it will be huge, way undervalued! JMHO.
Nice to see the stock symbol on the truck!
Interesting read from the May 10-Q...
The Employee RSUs issued to certain nonexecutive employees of the Company were issued either partially in lieu of salary, future bonuses or a combination of both bonus and salary. The Employee RSUs vest according to the following schedule: On July 1, 2015 600,000 will vest and on December 31, 2015 an additional 600,000 shares will vest. On December 31, 2016 an additional 1.2 million shares will vest and an additional 1.6 million shares will vest on July 1, 2017. Vesting is contingent on being an employee of the Company at the time of vesting. In addition, there are restrictions on the sale of such vested stock including aggregate volume restrictions and no Employee RSU shares can be sold below $2.50 per share. In addition, up to an additional 25,000 shares will vest on a monthly basis. Vesting is contingent on employment by the Company at the time of vesting, and the Company stock price closing above $2.50 per share for 20 straight days. In addition, there are restrictions on the sale of such vested stock including aggregate volume restrictions and no shares can be sold below $2.50 per share
The Company estimated that the stock-price goals of the Company’s stock price closing above $2.50 per share for 20 straight days have a 90% likelihood of achievement, and these RSUs were valued at 90% of their face value. The Company estimated that the revenue targets had a 100% likelihood of achievement, and these RSUs were valued at 100% of their face value. We recognized stock-based compensation expense of in a straight-line manner over the vesting period of the RSUs. This resulted in stock-based compensation expense of $690,397 related to recognition of RSUs during the three months ended March 31, 2015.
Food delivery will be the thing of the future and the Fresh Diet is here already! They just have to get noticed. Maybe the new marketing company will get this going?

Some serious volume today. I hope this is a sign that some good things are coming.
Did anyone watch the Profit on CNBC last night, Marcus Lemonis said he likes the food delivery business, maybe he should take a look at IVFH's Fresh Diet!!!

Just give it a little time, this company is not on the radar yet. When it does get there hold on tight.
Food Tech is HOT! Take a look at Plated,How Shark Tank's Plated Broke $100 Million in Revenue in Three Years
The New York-based startup attributes much of its 500 percent annual revenue growth to one key factor: Americans who want to eat well.
The Fresh Diet is larger, has the infrastructure in place has the connections, and management team in place to grow revenues at least at the same rate. IVFH will be a monster when they get the Fresh Diet going. JMHO!

I disagree, this stock is in the process of a major turn around, Sam is getting all the pieces in place for a big move. Higher exchange, more partnerships, key personnel and bigger investors!
Hold on to your shares tightly!
That is great news, a partnership with a $30 Billion company. Sam likes to do things in a big way! That is why I am here, the best is yet to come.

I don't know for sure, I know that in the recent presentation they said that they were trying different things to drive customers to their site. That should be one of their target markets.
Market cap $28.99 Mil Revenues on track for $50 Mil. Way under valued.
Yes I caught the presentation, very well polished, I think they are really moving the company along well.
