LOS ANGELES, CA – Accesswire – April 22, 2020 – Pacific Ventures Group, Inc. (OTC: PACVD) (the “Company”), a food and beverage holding company specializing in the distribution of consumer food, beverage and alcohol-related products, is pleased to announce that its San Diego Farmers Outlet (“SDFO”) has increased their retail sales by 40% over the past two months.

The rise in sales is due to retail business experiencing an increase in traffic. In addition, the Company has successfully shifted its drive to more foot traffic into the store during this unprecedented time of COVID-19. These customers are coming from local residents and nearby customers looking for shorter lines and stocked inventory in local stores versus the larger retailers.

Pacific Ventures Group Chief Executive Officer, Shannon Masjedi, stated, “despite the current challenges we all face, I am delighted to be able to report this period of substantial growth. We believe that 2020 will be in line with expectations with retail traffic adding sustained increase in sales. We expect that integration of product lines across our businesses will provide further growth in sales and increased value to our Shareholders.”

During these challenging times, this increase in retail sales should help offset the decrease in wholesale sales due to the COVID-19.

Combined, San Diego Farmers Outlet and Seaport Meat Company generated $33 million revenue in 2019 and is well-positioned for growth with its larger customer base, expanded range of products, an expanded network of retail and institutional accounts.

Ms. Shannon Masjedi, Pacific Venture Group’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, “It has been a lengthy process to get to this point and has required a tremendous amount of teamwork. Working together with the Company’s shareholders, note holders, legal counsel and regulatory agencies, management strongly believes we have accomplished a significant step in preparing for the future of Pacific Ventures Group and the growth of Seaport Meat Company and San Diego Farmers Outlet.”

 Masjedi, concluded, “We have many goals to still accomplish, including a capital raise to prepare us for the growth of our businesses. Our team is focused on organic and acquisitive growth opportunities and believes over time our valuation will improve as we attract new shareholders. This action also puts us in better position to meet the stock price threshold to eventually list onto a major national exchange. Thank you to all our shareholders for their support, we remain excited about the future of Pacific Ventures Group.”

LOS ANGELES, CA – Accesswire – January 20, 2020 – Pacific Ventures Group, Inc. (OTC: PACV), a food and beverage holding company specializing in the distribution of consumer food, beverage and alcohol-related products, today announced the expansion of its geographic reach for both San Diego Farmers Outlet (“SDFO”) and Seaport Meat Company (“SMC”).

Additionally, as a result of the synergies realized through the business relationship with SDFO, SMC has also been able to expand its distribution reach from approximately 75 miles to a 100-mile radius.

Ms. Shannon Masjedi, Pacific Venture Group’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, “While we enter 2020 with a larger customer base, expanded range of products, an expanded network of retail and institutional accounts and an expected annual revenue base of $33 million, our team has decided now is a prudent time to expand our geographic reach for both San Diego Farmers Outlet and Seaport Meat Company.

Targeting 10%+ Organic Growth from $33 Million Annual Revenue Base

LOS ANGELES, CA – Accesswire – January 6, 2020 – Pacific Ventures Group, Inc. (OTC: PACV), a food and beverage holding company specializing in the distribution of consumer food, beverage and alcohol-related products, is pleased provide an update and strategic plan on its recently closed acquisition of Seaport Meat Company.

Pacific Ventures Group entered 2020 with a larger customer base, expanded range of products, an expanded network of retail and institutional accounts and an expected annual revenue base of $33 million.

Since 1983, San Diego Farmers Outlet (“SDFO”) has been San Diego’s premier supplier of affordable produce, dairy products and specialty groceries for retail customers and wholesale restaurants. SDFO generated approximately $5 million revenue in 2019.

While Seaport Meat Company (“SMC”) has been focused on its own manufacturing of custom processed beef, pork, chicken, lamb, veal and seafood and its distribution, primarily in southern California, over the past 30 years, there are opportunities for increased food product distribution. SMC generated approximately $28 million revenue in 2019.

SnöBar is a line of alcohol infused ice cream and ice-pops that initially launched in Arizona in 2013 and are available in liquor stores, restaurants and in grocery stores in specially branded freezers. Each serving of SnoBar’s ice cream and ice-pops features the equivalency of a full serving of alcohol. The Company is in midst of expanding SnoBar.

Ms. Shannon Masjedi, Pacific Venture Group’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are pleased to have exited 2019 with the closing of our Seaport Meat Company acquisition. We now have a more significant food distribution platform to build upon in 2020 and beyond as we target at least 10% organic growth and seek additional acquisitions for geographic or food segment growth. Our team is already integrating the businesses to achieve operating efficiencies and identifying revenue growth opportunities that include, but are not limited to increasing distribution points for each business, produce, dairy, meat, seafood and all other restaurant supplies.”

Masjedi, continued,” We recognize that each distribution network can benefit from carrying and delivering additional food to its end customers, so that one plus one equals more than two. For example, SnoBar can now benefit from the increased distribution of both San Diego Farmers Outlet and Seaport Meat Company. Additionally, we believe Seaport Meat Company has experienced more demand than they can meet, so we have committed to increased inventory purchasing to meet such demand.”
