Gilles and the mysterious chewy snack

So Gilles is suddenly going to launch a cookie into the bear pit that is the snack food market. Of course they dont have a single person on staff in any way qualified to oversee this project. Real snack food companies spend millions on pefecting flavour and mouth feel through endless focus testing around the market area to understand geographic preferences. They do a marketing plan and integrate things like packaging and promotions. They of course have already have a large distribution network and the money for advertising neither of which CZO has. Further they dont need to find a contract manufacturer as Ceapro would and agree to certain minimums just to get anyone to do it.  
My point is that like almost everything Gilles says this cookie thing is a straight up lie. CZO has exactly none of the required elements to carry this off successfully. No qualified people no money no manufacturing no distribution  no marketing and no actual intention to do it.
It is just an easy throw away lie before the vote.
Do not believe anything Gilles says leading up to the vote. Look at the track record that is the only thing we can trust. 
Oh and dont get me started on the Natex lie.

"So Gilles is suddenly going to launch a cookie into the bear pit that is the snack food market." Let's see if you can define the long-term vision that may be underlying the chewy bar. Could the oat beta glucan chewy bar be an oral/edible delivery platform and franchise for CZO's unique active ingredients from avenanthramide to PGX-YBG, PGX-YBG/CoQ10, etc. Has CZO run an ...more

Ya dumdum all questions for which we have no answers. What we do know is that nothing is in place to launch any snack product period.  Gilles played this exact same game before with the energy drink. Remember that debacle. Two solid years of saying we have a new formula that will revolutionise the space CoQ10 blah blah blah we are meeting with serious partners yadda yadda before they quietly ...more

"Ya dumdum all questions for which we have no answers. What we do know is that nothing is in place to launch any snack product period." Are you going to wait until after they announce a distribution deal with a major player?  How can CZO approach the functional food category: - Preservative-free oat beta glucan powder - Avenanthramide malted technology now at commercial scale ...more

Same old BS . Gilles has never made a deal in 12 years. Not with a major player or a minor player or a little league player or a fiddle player, never.  What he has done is lie about making deals over and over again only a complete idiot would keep falling for that.  Anybody Anybody Bueller??

"Gilles has never made a deal in 12 years. Not with a major player or a minor player or a little league player or a fiddle player, never." Symrise has repeatedly complemented CZO concerning its product development partnership. CZO serves global brands with its unique avenanthramide. As for the pipeline Gilles brought it to the commercial goal line himself, informed by discussions with ...more

God youre annoying, Gilles has never made a deal full stop. Dr Whoever and some boiler plate BS from Symrise are not deals.

The beta male can never understand the heroic alpha male who brings the opportunity to the goal line himself. Using cashflow from the base business CZO may now be 6 months from commercial-scale PGX production and the decision point for mass industrialization with industry leader Natex. Then it will be time to partner. The alpha male having brought the project to the point of mass adoption.

If the chewy bar is the Chief Revenue Officer's contribution fire her.
Comment by prophetoffactz on Feb 28, 2024 2:46pm
It could be interesting with avenanthramide. It could double heart health claims with oat beta glucan as beta glucan addresses cholesterol while avenanthramide inflammation. It could double glucose management claims with oat beta glucan as avenanthramide also helps with glucose management preclinical research suggests. CZO has run avenanthramide exercise inflammation studies; including with Pepsi. ...more
