Prior to shipping, Daymon Worldwide and client representatives, including quality control and taste auditors, were hosted for a final approval of the production run and the product. They shared their opinion that of all their focus group tastings, "there is not a gelato or ice cream in America that tastes as good and creamy, and yet maintains such a clean finish." We believe that it is our artisanal formulas combined with natural Sicilian ingredients that make the difference. These proprietary recipes and know-how have proven themselves in Italy and Europe and are now garnering commercial interest from the US and around the world.
We are excited that the commercial launch of this initial order has begun. Updated information, provided by Daymon Worldwide and clients, show an increase in previous sales projections. The result is an expected increase in quarterly sales from $3.5 million per quarter run rate to $5 million per quarter run rate, by the fourth quarter of 2015.
Mr. Francis Biscan Jr., President of Firma Holdings, stated, "We knew the world would fall in love with Sicilian Sun Foods, once they had the chance to indulge in the authentic flavors of Sicily. The launch of this project with Daymon Worldwide and clients marks the beginning of making these amazing natural Sicilian ingredients and flavors available to the world. By marrying the old world purity and natural excellence of Sicily with new world state-of-the-art production and technology, we are making it possible for someone to simply open their freezer and enjoy a taste of Sicilian lifestyle."
Sicilian Sun utilizes the services of La Petite Foods and Daymon Worldwide to contract with major grocery chains consisting of thousands of retailers throughout the United States to manufacture private label and branded products.
