+Added: The decrease in revenue is primarily attributable to a decrease in specialty foodservice revenues which was driven by the nationwide closures of restaurants and other foodservice establishments related to COVID-19.
+Added: The decline in specialty foodservice was partially offset with revenues increases mainly associated with e-commerce.
+Added: The increases in e-commerce revenues were driven by the Company’s ability to increase sales at its e-commerce properties and convert significant shifts in e-commerce specialty food, supermarket trends, and e-commerce grocery trends, driven initially by the COVID-19 pandemic, into e-commerce revenues.
+Added: We continue to assess the potential of new revenue sources from the manufacture and sale of proprietary food products, private label products and additional sales channel opportunities in both the foodservice and consumer space and will implement a strategy which based on our analysis provides the most beneficial opportunity for growth.

+Added: Total gross margin was approximately 27% of sales in 2020 compared to approximately 29% of sales in 2019.
+Added: The decrease in gross margins from 2019 is primarily attributable to variation in product and revenue mix across our various selling channels including a decrease in higher gross margin revenues associated with National Brand Management and lower gross margins associated with foodservice revenues including revenue and margin variations driven by the COVID-19 pandemic.
+Added: In 2020, we continued to price our products in order to gain market share and increase the number of our end users and ecommerce customers.

+Added: These increases were partially offset by a decrease in amortization and depreciation of $530,157 and a decrease in professional fees of $25,048.
+Added: The increases were driven mainly by additional costs including increases in costs including warehouse fulfillment costs associated with COVID-19, increased costs associated with additional personnel mainly related to warehouse operations, overall employee costs and insurance costs, increased legal, accounting, facility and IT costs including costs associated with the planned launch of new websites, and increased advertising associated with increased spending in digital marketing related to certain of the Company’s e-commerce websites.

+Added: The Company had cash used in investing activities of $450,387 for the year ended December 31, 2020, which consisted of cash paid for the acquisition of property and equipment in the amount of $431,137, and cash paid for the acquisition of intangible assets in the amount of $19,250.
+Added: The Company had cash provided by financing activities of $3,304,235 for the year ended December 31, 2020, which consisted of proceeds for a line of credit in the amount of $2,000,000 and proceeds from a PPP loan in the amount of $1,650,221;
+Added: these amounts were partially offset by principal payments on loans and notes payable in the amount of $278,668 and principal payments on financing leases in the amount of $67,318.
+Added: The Company currently anticipates that up to 100% of this PPP loan will be eligible for government forgiveness under the PPP program, although there is no assurance of such eligibility.
+Added: The Company had net working capital deficit of $760,101 as of December 31, 2020.
+Added: The Company had cash used in operations during the year ended December 31, 2020 in the amount of $1,759,883.
+Added: This compares to cash generated from operating activities of $1,594,647 during the year ended December 31, 2019.
+Added: The Company intends to continue to focus on increasing market share and cash flow from operations by focusing its sales activities on specific market segments and new product lines.
+Added: Currently, we do not have any material long-term obligations other than those described in Notes 12, 13 and 14 to the financial statements included in this report.
+Added: As we seek to increase our sales of new items and enter new markets, acquire new businesses as well as identify new food oriented products and services, we may use existing cash reserves, long-term financing, or other means to finance such diversification, although no assurance can be given that such growth will occur.
+Added: If the Company’s cash flow from operations is insufficient to fully implement its business plan, the Company may require additional financing in order to execute its operating plan.
+Added: The Company cannot predict whether this additional financing will be in the form of equity or debt, or be in another form.
+Added: The Company may not be able to obtain the necessary additional capital on a timely basis, on acceptable terms, or at all.
+Added: In any of these events, the Company may be unable to implement its current plans for expansion, repay its debt obligations as they become due or respond to competitive pressures, any of which circumstances would have a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
+Added: As 2020 began we put together a plan which we expected to try to implement in 2020.
+Added: Those plans are described in the paragraphs below.
+Added: However, in the interim period since those plans were prepared, as described above in “Business – Growth Strategy”, “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Report, in 2020 the world has been in the grip of a pandemic which has wreaked havoc on economies world-wide, including in the U.S., which is our primary market.
+Added: As a result of the pandemic, restaurants, hotels, country clubs, casinos, catering houses and other of our primary customers have either been closed completely or are only partially open with significantly reduced operations.
+Added: Accordingly, Foodservice revenues, which historically have been a significant overall portion of our revenues have been significantly reduced as most foodservice establishments cross the United States closed or had limited operations.
+Added: As a result, Foodservice revenue commencing in the second half of March 2020 and continuing throughout the year experienced unprecedented declines.
+Added: Conversely, we have experienced significant growth in our on-line e-commerce revenues as overall e-commerce grew and as demand for food products continued across the United States.
+Added: Accordingly, we have focused our resources on meeting the growth of e-commerce revenues.
+Added: While the percentage increase in e-commerce revenues was strong, the additional e-commerce revenues did not exceed the decrease in foodservice revenues commencing in the second half of March 2020 and continuing throughout the year and overall revenues and profits declined for that time frame.
+Added: In April 2020 we applied for and received a loan of approximately $1.6 million under a program established under a recent congressionally approved program which is administered by the U.S.
+Added: Small Business Administration.
+Added: In 2021 we applied for and received $1,748,414 in new loans under a similar government program administered by the U.S.
+Added: Small Business Administration.
+Added: In addition, between the government loans, the potential forgiveness of the government loans, cash on hand and our current expectations of incoming revenues, we believe we have sufficient resources to continue operating for at least the next 12 months.
+Added: However, as we cannot predict at this time when quarantines, curfews, stay in place orders, and closures of non-essential businesses will end and general economic activity will resume, we cannot predict when our business will return to its pre-pandemic norms and the amount of economic stress we would experience.
+Added: While we intend to continue to focus on executing on our strategic growth plans, given the current economic conditions, we are not able to determine the exact timeframe in 2021, if at all, that we can then again consider fully implementing portions of the plans described below.
+Added: During 2021, we plan to attempt to expand our business by expanding our focus to additional specialty foods markets.
+Added: In addition, we will continue exploring potential acquisition and partnership opportunities and continue to extend our focus in the specialty food market through the growth of the Company’s existing sales channels and through a variety of additional potential sales channel relationships.
+Added: In addition, we are currently exploring the introduction of, or have introduced into the market, a variety of new product categories and new product lines, including private label products and proprietary branded products to leverage our existing foodservice and consumer customer base.
+Added: Furthermore, the Company intends to continue to expand its activities in the direct to consumer space and the overall consumer packaged goods (CPG) space through leveraging the assets acquired from igourmet LLC and Mouth Foods, Inc.
+Added: and through leveraging its overall capabilities in the consumer space, including leveraging its direct to consumer e-commerce capabilities to reach both additional customers in multiple channels, and to expand availability of its e-commerce capabilities to additional products and markets.
+Added: No assurances can be given that any of these plans will come to fruition or that if implemented that they will necessarily yield positive results.
+Added: Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
+Added: We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues, or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
+Added: In the opinion of management, inflation has not had a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of its operations.
+Added: Transactions with Major Customers
+Added: The Company's largest customer, U.S.
+Added: and its affiliates, accounted for approximately 40% and 57% of total sales in each of the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019;
+Added: and approximately 32% of total sales in the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to 50% of total sales in the fourth quarter of 2019.
+Added: A contract between our subsidiary, Food Innovations, and USF entered an optional renewal period in December 2012 but was automatically extended for an additional 12 months in each of January 1, 2013 and 2014.
+Added: On January 26, 2015 we executed a contract directly between Food Innovations, Inc., our wholly-owned subsidiary, and U.S.
+Added: The term of the Agreement was from January 1, 2015 through December 31, 2016 and provided for a limited number of automatic annual renewals thereafter if no party gives the other 30 days' notice of its intent not to renew.
+Added: Based on the terms, the Agreement was extended through 2018.
+Added: Effective January 1, 2018 the Agreement was further amended to remove the cap on renewals, and provide for an unlimited number of additional 12-month terms unless either party notifies the other in writing, 30 days prior to the end date, of its intent not to renew.
