TITUSVILLE, Fla., March 02, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Apple Rush Company, Inc. (US OTC PINK: APRU), announces that it has signed a new distribution agreement for Colorado and Arizona with another investor partner John Brusto.
John Brusto of 4Life Natural Products, LLC brings over 20 years of experience in the Hospitality industry as an owner/operator of several successful restaurants in Colorado to the APRU distribution team. John has been an investor in APRU since 2018 and has steadily increased his holdings as the company diversified into the CBD market with new and innovative products. After following the sales growth and territory expansion UMIG Distributing has experienced in North Dakota, John felt that it was a great time to introduce Element C to the Colorado and Arizona markets.
Tony Torgerud, CEO of Apple Rush stated, “John has been an investor in Apple Rush for a long time and is strong supporter of Apple Rush and all of its brands. We started talking in 2018 about the possibility of bringing his hospitality experience to APRU in the western region. John has since sold his restaurants and we have discussed the best way for him to help for several months. It was determined after many conversations that John's ideas aligned with our business model of expansion with groups that had a vested interest in the success of our brands. John will use his many years of business experience to deliver great sales results for our brands.”
John stated, "As public awareness of the benefits of CBD grows, so will the demand for its products." John plans to target dispensaries, convenience stores & liquor stores. He also plans to promote Apple Rush beverages to taverns and liquor stores as an alternative mixer to sugar based soda products.
Tony Torgerud, CEO of Apple Rush, continued, “This expansion continues with our 2021 initiative of adding additional distribution partners. We will continue working on relationships that enhance our regional distribution capabilities and that growth will propel us to larger distributors as we grow our co-packing partnerships in order to reduce shipping costs of our liquids across the country. This new agreement continues to show our belief in finding partners that are truly invested in what we do. The Apple Rush Company will continue working to develop and distribute winning formulations that bring enhanced shareholder value to our investors.”
