TITUSVILLE, Fla., Oct. 19, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Apple Rush Company, Inc. (Other OTC:APRU) announces the approval of Dierbergs grocery as an initial retailer in Metro St. Louis. Dierbers is a 25 store chain of upscale grocery stores located in the St. Louis metro market. Grey Eagle Distributors will be servicing the account for Apple Rush Company, Inc. A sampling program and retail support with advertising included is in the partnership.
“We secured Dierbergs grocery during our meetings in St. Louis this past May with the assistance of Peter D. Perkins of Perkins Development, LLC. Gaining the support of Dierbergs is an essential step in gaining additional grocery retailers on a national basis. They are a well-respected grocery and many other retailers look to retailers such as Dierbergs to see what is up and coming in grocery. Dierbergs gives us a nice initial footprint in the area,” comments Tony Torgerud, the CEO of Apple Rush Company, Inc. He continues, “We will be making additional announcements for the area in the near future with Peter setting appointments with his contacts throughout the Midwest and Grey Eagle Distribution beginning the rollout to their entire portfolio of customers.” Peter comments, “It is great to see how well accepted the Midwest is to a 100% all natural sparkling juice such as Apple Rush. We are excited to see the two largest grocery chains in the region get onboard as soon as they were introduced to it and look forward to spreading distribution through other retail chains. I am currently setting appointments in the Chicago markets for grocery, restaurant, and entertainment venues.” Chrissy Gansert, brand development manager of non alcohol with Grey Eagle Distributors commented, “We are excited to have Dierbergs on board as we launch Apple Rush throughout our territory.” Apple Rush Company, Inc. will also be following up over the near future with corporate updates, financial updates, manufacturing updates, and general information updates on our progress.

About Dierbergs: Dierbergs took root in 1854 when a general merchant exchange opened on Olive Street Road, just east of where Highway 270 crosses Olive today. The store sold kerosene, flour, sugar, seasonings, boots and shoes, fabric and clothing, hardware and other staples. It was a reflection, much like Dierbergs stores today, of the demands and needs of its customers. Now more than 4,000 Associates share in Dierbergs' history and uphold its reputation built on hard work, personal service and a commitment to meeting the growing needs of our area through community service.
