VANCOUVER, BC, Dec. 10, 2021 /CNW/ - Yumy Bear Goods Inc., (CSE: YUMY) ("Yumy Bear" or the "Company") announces it has sold out of its popular peach and strawberry kiwi flavours temporarily. The Company has recently received a surge of orders from large chains across the country which has caused a temporary sellout of its popular peach and strawberry kiwi flavours. The active shortage in the Company's inventory versus standard operating procedure is at an estimated 230,000 individual units. The Company is actively working towards production solutions to bring in supply to match growing demand.
"As soon as we started Yumy Bear, we knew there was going to be significant demand for our products, but in reality, it has far exceeded our expectations. Earlier in the year, we expanded our production capacity in anticipation for growing demand which we are currently overwhelmed with. However, we are currently talking to other facilities alternatives to fit consumer/retailer demand and expect a solution very quickly," states CEO and Founder, Erica Williams.
"Yumy Bear is a very versatile product which fits almost every category and retailer which we knew when we launched our product. However, the gap in the market for "Better for You" candies is even more significant than our market research. Retailers are quickly agreeing to product launches and pilot programs in their stores, in which we see our growth over the last period has been exceeding all expectations. Consumer repurchases are higher than industry standard showing strong evidence that customers are enjoying our product," comments Cassidy McCord, Director.
Yumy Bear is an affordable health-conscious low-sugar plant-based confectionery company based in Vancouver, British Columbia and it has developed a portfolio of healthier gelatine-free candies made from non-GMO ingredients with proprietary recipes. All of its products are free of gelatin, soy, gluten, nuts, dairy, eggs, sugar alcohols, artificial sweeteners and genetically modified organisms.
