Vejii Announces Launch of Blender Bites Through its Fulfillment Program in Canada

VANCOUVER BC, March 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - Vejii Holdings Ltd. (CSE: VEJI) (OTC: VEJIF) ("the Company'' or "Vejii"), a North American online marketplace for plant-based and sustainable products, is pleased to announce that the Company has signed an agreement with Blender Bites Ltd. ("Blender Bites")(CSE: BITE, FWB: JL4, WKN: A3C3Y2), an award-winning Canadian company offering a line of premium, organic and plant-based pre-portioned frozen functional foods (the "Agreement"). Under the terms of the Agreement, Blender Bites will be joining Vejii's fulfillment and distribution platform, Vejii Fulfillment Services ("VFS") to be merchandised alongside the Company's top-selling products in Canada, through its Vejii Express platform.

"The VFS program is similar to the Amazon FBA model, but provides fulfillment services for D2C and B2B channels, specializing in the challenging category of cold-chain logistics, which is something that we do well. As we've been helping support our brand partners, we identified the need for brands to have access to our internal cold-chain distribution network, and since we launched Vejii Fulfillment Services, over 40% of our brand partners participate in the program. The VFS program has proven to be valuable for our brand partners, and brings Vejii the ability to continue to scale and onboard brands by accepting inventory on consignment from brands into our distribution network" Kory Zelickson, CEO of Vejii.  said Kory Zelickson, CEO of Vejii.

Blender Bites recently won the 2022 Product of The Year ("POY") Canada Award, under the organic beverage category (the "Award"). As the winner of the POY Canada Award Frozen Food/Healthy Beverage category, Blender Bites was judged in their specific category, whereby through a survey of 4,000 people by Kantar, Canadian consumers cast their vote on Blender's products, scoring the products' innovation against same category peer products, using seven (7) key performance indicators, inclusive of 'appeal', 'satisfaction', 'advocacy', 'purchase interest', 'uniqueness', 'relevance' and 'excitement'.

"We love Blender Bites and their product offering that provides consumers with a simple solution towards maintaining a healthy diet. We're proud to partner with an award-winning brand that recognizes our ability to deliver their products across the country, direct-to-consumer, and at the same time offer a world-class buying experience," said Darren Gill, President, and COO of Vejii. Blender Bites SKU's will now be available on both platforms through the VFS program, and the Company is looking forward to launching new SKU's on behalf of Blender Bites as they come to market.
