Louisiana Food Company to Acquire Specialty Food Manufacturer/Distributor

BATON ROUGE, La., Aug. 22, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Louisiana Food Company (OTCBB: LUSI), a purveyor of "Certified" Louisiana specialty food products, today announced that it has signed a letter of intent to acquire a small, independent South Louisiana-based specialty food manufacturer with distribution in approximately 100 grocery stores.  LUSI targeted this company for acquisition, based on its strong South Louisiana-inspired family of products that includes pepper jellies, salsas and dips.  It is expected that a definitive agreement will be signed following completion of each party's due diligence.

Capturing South Louisiana

From the outset, LUSI's management has believed that the rich and diverse cultural heritage of South Louisiana would provide a natural source of inspiration for its product labels.  As works of art, LUSI's product labels capture the movement and energy that is South Louisiana – they are "eye-grabbers", and retailer and consumer response to the labels has been extremely positive.
