"I think joining the Boosh family is a perfect fit for us. They strive to differentiate themselves in the plant-based sector, as do we. Our emphasis at Pulse Kitchen is to create deliciously flavoured plant-based cheeses with a focus on high quality and texture allowing us to enhance our consistency relating to balancing the levels of acidity and quality, resulting in a unique set of characteristics in terms of flavour, taste and texture," states Chef Stephanos Liapis, owner and founder of Pulse Kitchen. "Our products certainly take center stage on any charcuterie board and are equally enjoyed while snacking or adding to other dishes."
"We are thrilled to welcome Stephanos, Brigitte and their team to Boosh. Not only are they amazing people, and produce amazing cheese, but their products pair beautifully with our line of Vege pate and dips from our recently acquired business, Salt Spring Harvest. Going forward Boosh will have an entire line of foods that pair naturally with wine, which happens to be a passion of mine. Having an earlier career in the food and beverage industry and owning a wine store and two wine bars, this is of special interest to me," stated founder and president, Connie Marples. She continues, "To top it off, Penticton is my hometown where I spent most of my childhood. Having a production facility where a piece of my heart is and the heart of the wine country adds to the cache of the Pulse Kitchen brand."
CEO Jim Pakulis states, "This is our third acquisition in less than nine months. As we continue to execute on our business plan including our four-prong revenue stream model; organic growth, acquisition, US expansion and E-commerce, we continue to be in discussions with other plant-based acquisition candidates who are looking for access to capital and a corporate infrastructure designed for growth."
The aggregate purchase price for Pulse Kitchen is $300,000 in cash and the issuance of 50,000 common shares, payable as follows. $100,000 payable on the closing date, minus $10,000 deposit, 50,000 common shares of Boosh issued on the Closing Date, $100,000 payable six months from the date of closing and $100,000 twelve months from closing date.
