Future of Cheese Expands Distribution to New Retailers, Food Services and Restaurants; Enters Discussions With Additional Distributors to Support National Roll-Out

Organic Garage Ltd. (TSXV: OG | OTCQX: OGGFF | FRA: 9CW1), one of Canada’s leading independent organic grocers, is pleased to announce that its plant-based food company, Future of Cheese Inc. (“Future of Cheese” or the “Company”), continues to report increasing demand for its initial product, the plant-based “Future of Butter”, and the Company’s distributor has stated that the orders from existing and new retailers, as well as interested restaurant and food service partners, will account for 100% of all product the Company will produce going into the new year.

“The incredible response and rapid adoption by retailers seeking to secure orders of the first SKU from Future of Cheese in such a short period of time has been exceptional and is a testament to the product and the world-class team behind it. We are doing an excellent job of matching production to retailer demand and ensuring that we are selling out of each batch produced, thus not over-producing and leading to unnecessary waste,” stated Matt Lurie, President and CEO of Organic Garage Ltd. “The adoption of a brand’s first SKU is typically an uphill battle, but clearly the demand for a plant-based product crafted by Afrim Pristine and Craig Harding has proven the opposite, and the positive retailer and consumer response we’re seeing proves it!”

The Company has initially launched the products in Canada’s largest consumer market, Ontario, and its distributor, Cheese Boutique, has in a short time already once sold out of product and expects this to continue as it carefully manages the retailer roll-out. In order to efficiently scale up for wider distribution the Company has entered into discussions with additional distributors to begin properly planning national expansion as the Company sets sights on launching its next line of products as planned.
