“I have been very pleased with our performance thus far. We are working very hard to add more retailers and build strong distribution across Canada with our lineup of unique brands” Says Petcherski. We want to share our fun, innovative and cool snacks with every consumer throughout Canada and the US. The right deal in the Den can help us do just that.”
