Baristas Coffee Company, Inc. (BCCI)

Certification question e and response interesting, may explain why the company waited until 2015 to post the Certification.

Specifically, BCCI says that there were no "third party providers...engaged by the Company, its officers...during the period from the Company's prior fiscal year end to the date of this (emphasis added) ... Certification, to provide investor relations services, public relations services, or other related services to the Company including promotion of the Company or its securities."

Those who have been here for at least a year will certainly remember the flurry of PR last spring related to franchising, growth opportunity, etc. -- certainly no-one believes that the recognition from multiple publications evolved organically.

And unfortunately, the PR flurry wasn't effective, with no franchising agreements since then (except the one announced in May which was subsequently 'undone').
