From The Desk of The President
Some time has passed since my last letter. I know that has been of concern to some, but I assure you all, that AAPT has been doing what it set out to do…and that is to build a world class brand with real value for shareholders.
We are a reporting company having filed our 10k 2012 and our 10Q 1st quarter 2013.
AAPT has met its six month initial trial period with Walmart and continues to receive bi-weekly purchase orders. We continue our NutraBar production to provide inventory to Walmart and Amazon, our two major accounts. In recent days we have also received purchase orders from a new account: Tractor Supply Stores. We will be introduced into a group of their mega-stores in anticipation of being on shelf in their nearly 2000 retail outlets.
Although we note Walmart as a retailer of NutraBars, in September the world’s largest retail store chain will be merchandising our CHEWIES treats for the first time. To support our on shelf presence and promote sales we are offering a $0.50 coupon on NutraBars at participating Walmart stores. We also have promoted a free NutraBar sample offer through Facebook with resounding success.
We are excited that Amazon sells out so quickly, and our experience tells us that they will place larger orders going forward to accommodate the growing demand for NutraBars.
Other retail accounts have awarded us vendor certification. We will share those clients with you as we ship their purchase orders.
To our loyal investors, we appreciate your continued support.
Onwards.
