NightFood to Engage With Leading E-Commerce Agency

TARRYTOWN, NY--(Marketwired - Apr 20, 2017) - NightFood Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: NGTF), a fully reporting "better-for-you" snack company, announced it is negotiating an engagement with a leading E-commerce agency to establish a profitable and scalable online marketing campaign for the Company's line of snacks.

The total US snack market is approximately $120 billion, and 44% of that occurs in the evening or late evening, representing a total consumer spend of over $1 billion weekly on nighttime snacks.

Information Resources, Inc. (IRI), a leading consumer packaged goods research firm, has predicted that online sales of snacks will see substantial growth in the next five years. They expect E-Commerce to comprise 5.5% of total snack sales by 2022. Currently, under 1% of snacks are purchased online, representing an increase of 588%.

IRI's 2017 report on consumer goods E-Commerce states that "niche brands are consistently outplaying brands that dominate in the brick and mortar world." Larry Levin, IRI's Executive Vice President of Innovations, has stated that consumers love small brands that make their lives better.

NightFood CEO Sean Folkson states, "These powerful consumer trends greatly benefit differentiated start-up brands such as NightFood. We're confident we can build on our successful online pilot programs to establish a direct to consumer online marketing presence which can operate profitably as a stand-alone in the short term, while providing tremendous support for expansion of our existing retail distribution. This allows for faster revenue growth than focusing solely on traditional retail channels."

Company CMO Peter Leighton added, "The agencies that made the short list have experience in establishing and scaling E-Commerce for young companies in the consumer goods space. They're very excited about the data we've compiled from Facebook, as it confirms that the NightFood brand resonates with the consumer."

Following in the path of other successful consumer product start-ups, the Company intends to drive revenue growth while developing relationships directly with customers through its online presence. This can be beneficial in many ways, including when testing and introducing new innovations, flavors, and snack formats.

"Online efforts to date have confirmed that consumers are very responsive upon learning there's a branded and packaged solution to the nighttime snacking problem. Our updated CraveMonster branding has allowed us to cut over 60% off our customer acquisition costs," explains NightFood CEO Sean Folkson. "Now it's time to start scaling."

As part of their overall online strategy, the Company will launch an updated website, grow Amazon, and identify and engage new market segments online.
