Food Innovations Inc. Announces New Customer Wins And Continued Sales Growth
Focus on quality food products and superior distribution service enables company to start 2005 on recordbreaking
pace.
For Immediate Release
NAPLES, Fla./EWORLDWIRE/Dec. 23, 2004 --- Premier specialty food distributor, Food Innovations Inc., a
wholly owned subsidiary of Innovative Food Holdings, Inc. (Pink Sheets: IVFH), today announced the addition
of several new customers during the past six months - marking a strong ending to 2004 - and also noted that
the company has recorded extraordinary sales growth for the end of fiscal year 2004. Beginning in July, the
company posted six consecutive months of record sales growth while enjoying the significant broadening of its
customer base.



The company first launched its premium food lines distribution service in January 2002. Since then it has grown
into a comprehensive specialty food distributor offering restaurants the ability to reduce distribution support
costs and streamline the ordering of all specialty food items by providing fresh, origin-specific, perishable
products to its customers within 24 hours of receiving an order. A computerized ordering system reduces the
customers' purveying costs and facilitates the ordering of specialty food items from vendors located around the
country.



CEO and Founder, Chef Joe DiMaggio, stated, "We are pleased with our growth for 2004 in our
perishable division. We have landed some of America's greatest restaurants, hotels, casinos and country clubs;
we have also seen great interest by manufacturers in FII owning and distributing proprietary products. In 2005,
we will be aggressively seeking new lines to add to our distribution channels and introduce them into our
customer and market base. We will be announcing a number of new products in January and February. Our
relationship with Harvest Pak Foods in Ft. Myers, Fla. - a manufacturer of 'aseptic' products such as soups,
sauces, vinaigrettes and value-added products - will start in the first quarter of 2005 with Chef Joe DiMaggio's
Tomato Butter and a line of excellent BBQ sauces new to market."
