BOERNE, TX–Mar 27, 2008 — The Tootie Pie Company, Inc., a premium baker and seller of high-quality, handmade pies, announced today that it sold in excess of 2,600 pies for the month of February, 2008; doubling the 1,300 plus pies sold in February of 2007.
“These February gains are the result of our ongoing efforts to grow our year round wholesale business, which is especially important during these ‘off season’ months. Experience tells us that sales made during these slower months will generally lead to even larger sales increases as the year progresses and our customer base grows,” said Don Merrill, Tootie Pie Company’s President & CEO.
Tootie Pie Company bakes and sells high-quality, handmade pies through three basic sales channels: retail, corporate and wholesale. The retail segment serves individual consumers through in-store sales, orders via telephone and internet on the Company’s website. The corporate segment serves businesses that purchase pies as a way to promote their company through client and employee appreciation programs. The wholesale segment is made up of regional and national broad-line foodservice distributors who purchase pies and then resell them to their customers.
