MIAMI, FL--(Marketwired - Nov 30, 2017) - Youngevity International (
Ernesto Aguila, President of CLR Roasters, said, "We are optimistic about the potential for growth of our green coffee distribution business in 2018. This commitment from one of our green coffee distribution partners represents a 60% increase in volume over 2017. We are optimistic that we will also experience growth from our other distribution partners for this segment in 2018."
Dave Briskie, Youngevity's President and CFO, said, "This new $7.5 million-dollar Green Coffee commitment represents a good start to the 2018 booking season. We experienced efficiency gains and revenue growth this year coming from our Nicaraguan-based operations. This has assisted us in strengthening our relationships with our Green Coffee Distribution partners which we anticipate will lead to stronger sales of green coffee in 2018. I am proud of our team's efforts and contributions orchestrated by our local partners: Alain Hernandez, Marisol Silas and Ernesto Aguila, who assisted greatly in developing this business."
