Great News! Garfield Go Live June 13th in North America!
Should be good couple of weeks here!
ICNB + LCBO = BOOM!
This will be the BIGGEST distribution deal to date for ICNB. Yes, even BIGGER than Bevmo! LCBO has more sales in wine alone than Bevmo has in total sales!
LCBO is both a distributor to the entire Ontario Market and a retailer to the Ontario Market with over 650 locations!
Taken from (5/26/17) PR: "Mr. Richard DeCicco stated, "We're working around the clock expanding the brand. I will be making presentations to the LCBO in Toronto in early June"
http://www.marketwired.com/press-release/iconic-brands-icnb-news-up-list-agenda-bellissima-prosecco-costco-hampton-memorial-day-2218774.htm
LCBO (Liquor Control Board of Ontario) distributes wine,beer and liquor to over 40% of the entire population of Canada with over 650 stores and over $1 billion in wine sales a year. This deal would be the start of international expansion and into a very large market. Entering this market could significantly increase sales!

Whole Foods Lynnfield, MA: Sells Bellissima
Listed as a store on the whole foods website that sells alcohol. I've called and verified that they do sell Bellissima. A picture was also posted earlier by KennyPenny
Link that shows Lynnfield store sells alcohol:
http://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/stores-that-sell-alcohol?page=4
Do what I did... call... but it's definitely them and it's in the store itself
I just got off the phone with that store. They were about to close but I did get someone from the beer and wine department. Here's what I learned. They have had it for about a week or so. They only have a half a case left on the shelf.
Could this be the national chain that Rich eluded to?
ICNB!
Fair point. Also news of North American release should be a catalyst for a good run here.
Thin to .0168... Lets go! ICNB!
We're starting to get some action... FRZT!
We'll get there, people are just looking for verification of US launch. Once that goes well we could also be looking at an Asian launch which would bring in massive downloads. imo
An Update on the New Game Similar to Pokemon GO but with Garfield
TUSTIN, CA - June 2, 2017 - InvestorsHub NewsWire - Freeze Tag (OTC: FRZT), a leading creator of mobile social games, today announced results from the soft launch of Garfield GO! Augmented Reality treasure hunt game in Australia. The game has been live in Australia on Google Play and Apple’s App Store since April 25th.
“Results from the user tests of Garfield GO! In Australia were beyond our expectations,,” said Craig Holland, CEO of Freeze Tag. “Based on the wonderful feedback, we’ve implemented the most requested features into the game and are preparing for the launch in North America.”
One of the key new features in Garfield GO! will be the offering of real prizes. When players hunt for comic strip pieces and trinkets, they also have the possibility of finding puzzle pieces for specific prizes. So, in addition to virtual treasure hunting for coins and other game components, when players find all of the pieces that combine to form a single prize package, they are able to receive a digital code redeemable at online stores. Prize partners are some of the most popular online retailers including Amazon, Best Buy, Domino’s Pizza, Starbucks and AMC Theaters, to name a few.
Garfield GO! represents the first collaboration between Freeze Tag and strategic partner, Munzee (www.munzee.com). Many Munzee players in Australia have been participants in the test launch period, providing valuable feedback to the Freeze Tag development team.
Positive news... patience is key here. Once the US launch occurs we will see some strong upward action here.
Actually you said so...
"As of April 2017, the Company has no cash, no tangible assets and no intellectual property, and is currently dependent on its majority stockholder, Oncolix"
AEPP has no cash, assets, or debt making it a clean shell. Oncolix is their majority stockholder, holding over 66 mil shares. It has also stated that it will go public in 2017. So after the reverse merger with Oncolix, AEPP will have a new ticker and have all intellectual property and assets of Oncolix.
April 6th PR:
Oncolix, Inc. Announces Acquisition of Public Entity
HOUSTON, TX, April 6, 2017 / -- ONCOLIX, INC., announced today it has finalized the purchase of a control stockholder’s interest in a public entity (Advanced Environmental Petroleum Producers, Inc. ("AEPP")). This public vehicle is now a partially-owned affiliate of Oncolix, Inc. Currently a private Delaware corporation, Oncolix is evaluating options that will allow its stock to be publicly traded.
Not sure which broker you use but I've bought at market many times.
Yes, it is a clean shell and in complete control of Oncolix. This will be the medium in which they do a reverse merger and go public. Thank you for providing the information that proves that the shell is completely debt free with no strings attached and ready for a reverse merger! Once the reverse merger occurs we will have a change in ticker symbol and it will then have all the tangible assets and intellectual property of Oncolix.
Presentation First Week of June: LCBO
This will be the BIGGEST distribution deal to date for ICNB. Yes, even bigger than Bevmo!

Bellissima, another Skinny Girl? Quite Possibly
I looked into the history of Skinny Girl which began in 2009. It looks like Skinny Girl sold to Beam around 2011 after the brand had sold somewhere between 100k to 150k cases. It took two years to get to those sales. Following the sale of the company the brand continued to grow and had sold over 500k cases in 2011 and 850k cases 2012, in large part because Beam had the marketing power. I'm not sure if a buyout is in the cards at all or anytime soon but I do believe we will/can sell over 100k cases this year which may make us a target for a buyout. Even if we are not a target for a buy out, clearly the growth of Belissima could be tremendous as seen by Skinny Girl growing from 100k cases to 850K cases in a couple years. Also, keep in mind that at the start of Skinny Girl the company didn't have the connections and experience that ICNB already does, which is probably the reason why it took Skinny Girl two years to reach the 100k cases mark.

Great information Professor. I think between people making requests to Costco and Bellissima selling at a swift place in this store which is physically connected to and has a tight relationship with Costco, could only help the cause of getting Bellissima to all Costcos. If you haven't already done so request the wine at your Costco.
From DrugDoctor:
Costco Members - Here are LINKS to REQUEST Bellissima at your local Costco..
Call or e-mail or both... Please have your local distributors Name and Contact telephone number or e-mail if you call
Have your membership number...
Make sure you say Bellissima Prosecco Wine and the Flavor... Zero Sugar, Brut, or Rose...
And tell them that it's available this weekend at COSTCO in Riverhead, NY.

They were a privately owned company and did not have a share structure. I believe it was bought out for $100-$120 million.
Yes, AEPP is a clean shell ready for a reverse merger. That's all that's saying.
Patiently sitting tight with AEPP. I see lots of potential. I was able to avg. down last few weeks and I'm very happy with the positive direction this is taking. Stair stepping north each day! Any positive news and with this share structure who knows how high this can go...
I think it's an improvement.
Go ICNB!
Consolidating Before Heading Higher
https://www.insiderfinancial.com/iconic-brands-inc-otcmktsicnb-consolidating-before-heading-higher/123511/
nice! thanks for getting the update
This is what I wrote to Costco using the links I provided to request all three expressions. I ask that you dont use the same exact wording so it doesn't sound like we're spamming them. Use this as an example only...
________________________
I was hoping that you could carry the Bellissima Prosecco wine in your stores in CT. They have three flavors all of which are excellent, Rose, Brut and Zero Sugar. Christie Brinkley is involved in the brand and so I imagine it would be very popular. I've been told that a Costco affiliated store in Long Island, NY is already carrying the brand. If it helps, I did some research and the distributor for the brand in CT is Hartley and Parker.
Thank you for your consideration,

Bigger than BEVMO
Bevmo VS LCBO (Liquor Control Board of Canada)
Since I don't live in Canada I was unfamiliar with LCBO. However I did some research and LCBO has nearly 6x (USD) the annual revenue that Bevmo does. Getting into this market will be BIG and potentially drive in massive sales! I think this could be bigger than the Bevmo deal! LCBO services 40% of the entire population of Canada with over 650 stores vs. 150+ Bevmo stores in California. LCBO sells more wine (over $1 billion) than Bevmo has in total sales!

Yesterday's picture from that store displayed 9 cases. So two cases in sales in a day is fantastic!
Alright, so after a couple of quick searches it looks like Scott Chapman may be related to a Lisa Chapman, possibly her husband. Lisa Chapman is a product manager for LCBO in charge of European sparkling wines.
PS the amount of information readily available through Google is scary.
I never joke when it comes to my investments! :)
LCBO: $1.4 billion in wine sales last year!

I found the comment you were referring to, it was from a Scott Chapman. It said " You'll be receiving an order from the lcbo in Ontario, Canada . Thank me later. Good luck!" I found a Linkin of a Scott Chapman that works for LCBO his title is listed as Head Booze tester.
Agreed!
