NEW YORK — Diamond Ranch Foods, Ltd., a foodservice distribution company specializing in meat, poultry and seafood processing, announced today it has begun the establishment of a re-distribution network within the tri-state area comprising New York, New Jersey and Connecticut for several of its branded products.
The manufacturer, fabricator, and first-line receiver of products, has begun shipments to four re-distributors this month. It plans to expand that network with additional re-distributors in the coming months.
"The significance of a re-distributor network," said Diamond Ranch Foods CFO/COO Victor Petrone, "is that it will allow the company to acquire an expansive customer base, affording larger volumes of product sales and broader brand recognition. This in turn gives the Company more buying power with manufacturers. Re-distributors customarily receive limited credit terms, thus increasing cash flow and quality of the Company's receivables.
"The establishment of a re-distribution network allows Diamond Ranch Foods to create another revenue stream for the Company, while allowing it to focus on its manufacturing and custom-cutting operation where the gross profit margins are highest, as well as concentrating on new product development," Mr. Petrone observed.
