We
service our customers from two warehouses: a 28K square foot facility in the greater Chicago area, and a 22K square foot facility in
the greater Denver area. We have the capabilities to pack and ship frozen, refrigerated, and ambient products, enabling us to sell a
broad range of specialty foods. We also have GFSI/SQF certifications, allowing compatibility with the highest standards of food handling
supply chains in the world, and the quality and food safety that our premium customers expect from us. These warehouses have the ability
to ship packages and pallets of all sizes through overnight shipping. We also leverage our own fleet of trucks to deliver directly to
our Professional Chef customers within our reach.

We
are dependent on internal technology systems and third-party platforms to support core operations, including order intake and processing
across multiple sales channels, product and pricing data management, vendor communications, inventory recordkeeping, warehouse operations,
and shipping and logistics coordination. Order information is transmitted electronically in many cases through integrations and other
interfaces to our warehouse operations and vendor partners, and certain workflows may include manual review steps and exception handling.
Our warehouse fulfillment processes use a combination of system-generated documentation and manual execution, including paper-based picking
in certain facilities, supported by inventory location records and standard operating procedures. We receive shipment status information
and delivery confirmations through carrier systems and third-party platforms where available; however, visibility and automation levels
vary by carrier and shipment type, including between parcel and freight shipments. Packaging and refrigerant requirements are generally
determined using product attributes and shipping configurations maintained in our systems and standard packing protocols, with operational
adjustments made by warehouse personnel as appropriate.

Customer
Service and Logistics

with order placement, product availability, substitutions, product specifications, and delivery-related inquiries. In certain cases,
personnel with culinary experience may also provide product usage guidance.

Our
logistics team manages the shipping and delivery process of every package to ensure timely delivery of products to our customers. The
logistics team receives shipping information on all products ordered, and packages are monitored from origin to delivery. If delivery
service is interrupted, our logistics department begins the process of expediting the package to its destination or potentially reshipping
the package with a goal of 100% customer satisfaction. Our logistics team works directly with our suppliers on an ongoing basis, to ensure
that the appropriate packaging and shipping specifications are in place at all times.

Business
Strategy

We
are focused on specialty foodservice distribution across Local Distribution, National Distribution, and Digital Channels. We have exited
the direct-to-consumer ecommerce business. In Digital Channels, we distribute products through drop-ship arrangements and e-commerce
channels, including third-party distributor platforms and other sales channels. In Local Distribution, we focus on our Chicago and Denver
markets through Artisan and Golden Organics operations. In National Distribution, we serve customers outside of our local footprint through
our warehouse network and third-party logistics providers.

Because
revenue is concentrated on a limited number of customers, we may seek to reduce customer concentration over time through channel and
customer diversification; however, there can be no assurance that such efforts will be successful.

Competition

While
we face intense competition in the marketing of our products and services, it is our belief that there are few companies offering a platform
similar to ours, offering a broad range of unique, high quality, chef driven specialty products, for nationwide delivery as soon as the
next day. Our primary competition is from local purveyors that supply a limited local market and have a limited range of products. In
addition, many purveyors are well established, have reputations for success in the development and marketing of these types of products
and services and have significantly greater financial, marketing, distribution, personnel and other resources. These financial and other
capabilities permit such companies to implement extensive advertising and promotional campaigns, both generally and in response to efforts
by additional competitors such as us, to enter into new markets and introduce new products and services.

Insurance

We
maintain a Business Owners Policy with a general liability per occurrence limit of $1,000,000 and aggregate policy covering $2,000,000
of liability for all entities, as well as building coverage with a limit up to $4,100,000 for its building in Illinois. The
Company carries an Auto Policy with non-owned automobile bodily injury and property damage coverage with a limit of $1,000,000 for all
entities. The Company also carries an Umbrella policy of up to $11,000,000 which covers all entities, along with two excess umbrella
policies that sit over the BOP and Umbrella policies. The excess umbrella policies have limits of $5,000,000 and $6,000,000. The Company
carries a Cyber policy of up to $2,000,000 which insures the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company carries a Commercial Property
Policy for its building in PA, with a limit of up to $12,350,000. Such insurance may not be sufficient to cover all potential claims
against us and additional insurance may not be available in the future at a reasonable price.

Government
Regulation

Various
federal and state laws regulate the delivery of fresh food products, requiring specialty foodservice third-party vendors to maintain
at least $3,000,000 liability insurance coverage and compliance with Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) standards. Key
regulations include Pennsylvania’s Solid Waste Management Act, Clean Streams Law, Air Pollution Control Act, FDA’s Food Safety
Modernization Act, Pennsylvania Food Code, FDA’s Fair Packaging and Labeling Act, Nutrition Labeling and Education Act, PA Food
Safety Act, and Pennsylvania’s Weights and Measures Act. Compliance with these regulations is crucial to avoid penalties, ensure
food safety, accurate labeling, and maintain profitability, as any changes that hinder our ability or increase costs could adversely
impact our net revenues, gross margins, and cash flows.

Intellectual
Property

The
Company acquired certain Trade Names in connection with the acquisitions of Golden Organics and LoCo. As of the date of this report,
we are not aware of any valid claim or challenges to our right to use the registered trademarks or any counterfeit or other infringement
to the registered trademarks.

Employees

As
of December 31, 2025, we employed approximately 70 employees. Our workforce includes personnel supporting warehouse operations and logistics,
merchandising and procurement, sales and customer service, and corporate functions, including finance, technology, and human resources.
We also utilize seasonal or temporary labor in certain periods. None of our employees are represented by a union.
