DENVER, CO--(Marketwire - Oct 23, 2012) - Barfresh Food Group, Inc. (OTCBB: [ BRFH ]) ("Barfresh Food Group," "Barfresh" or the "Company"), a manufacturer and distributor of unique ready to blend beverages, today announced it has successfully entered into an agreement with a well-known International Restaurant Chain, which consists of 330 locations in thirty eight states and six countries.

The agreement calls for Barfresh's Smoo™ Smoothies and proprietary packaging system to be tested in the restaurant chain's location(s) of their choice here in the United States. Upon test approval, we expect that full distribution and product rollout will commence to potentially all 330 restaurant locations, which currently operate under several different brand names both domestically and internationally.

Riccardo Delle Coste, Barfresh Food Group's Chief Executive Officer, said, "We're very excited to have landed a QSR (quick service restaurant) chain of this magnitude. It's very standard procedure for any large-scale QSRs to conduct testing prior to full product rollout, which is in the best interest of their customers and operations. However, we believe that getting product tests are a testament to the quality, efficiency and low cost nature of our all-natural blended beverage line. We believe that it's the final step toward putting us in a position to start realizing significant revenue and market share going into 2013."

Mr. Delle Coste went on to say, "Since getting our production line up and running only a few short months ago, we've not only signed on several small QSR chains, we're continuing to see a high degree of interest for our portion controlled ingredient packs with some of the most highly recognized multinational names in the QSR space. This interest is now rapidly translating into product test rollouts with these large chains.

Lastly, Mr. Delle Coste stated, "One large multinational client has the potential to change our fundamentals as a Company overnight. As the trend for healthier alternatives here in the U.S. continues to grow, we believe we are perfectly positioned to take advantage of this major shift in what Americans are eating and drinking on a daily basis."
