Commenting on the Company's progress, Zalmi Duchman, Home Bistro's CEO, said, "Whereas 2020 was the launch year for our unique offering and competitive differentiation, 2021 was the year of execution. Transitioning to fresh delivered meals was a game changer in terms of food quality, taste, experience and addressing consumer preferences. As our platform continues to grow, it becomes ever more appealing to a wider universe of celebrity chefs who seek to partner with us. In addition, the acquisition of Model Meals provided us with a meal offering appealing to consumers who prefer Paleo, Whole30 friendly and gluten-free meals, a West Coast base of operations and, most importantly, the two newest members of our executive management team, our chief financial officer and our chief marketing officer."

Mr. Duchman continued, "We believe 2022 will be the year of significant organic growth and scalability as our platform continues to become more widely recognized. Further, we have identified several potential strategic acquisitions which could also add substantially to our revenue, product diversification and operationally efficiency. We believe that our performance and progress will continue to be noticed by a wider audience and ultimately resulting in greater shareholder value."

Key 2022 Initiatives

  • The continued addition of celebrity chefs to the platform and significant organic growth and scalability.
  • Launch of celebrity chef meals currently in development - Ayesha Curry, Priyanka Naik and Roblé Ali.
  • A potential strategic acquisition.
  • Launch of In Good Taste Wines and Perfecting Athletes initiatives, and the addition of several more dessert items.
  • Potential up-listing of Home Bistro shares to the Nasdaq Market.

Home Bistro is planning a shareholder update call to be scheduled in February. Details will be forthcoming in a future press release.
