MIAMI, FL / ACCESSWIRE / October 7, 2021 / Kisses from Italy Inc. (OTCQB:KITL), a publicly listed U.S. based company, restaurant chain operator, franchisor, and product distributor (the "Company"), is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with Cuisine Solutions for the continued development and evolution of the Company's menu and future kitchen design. Kisses From Italy is focused on leveraging the latest kitchen technologies which will give current and future operational setups the ability to operate in a space that does not require a traditional hood or cooking vent thereby significantly reducing expenses that are usually incurred due to the traditional infrastructure setups. The new equipment layout will increase the number of spaces and locations available, particularly in high-profile locations, thus providing the opportunity to reduce the traditional kitchen footprint, while improving the unit economics for each location.

Cuisine Solutions, based in Sterling, Virginia, with an additional three locations across the U.S. as well as locations around the globe, including Thailand and France, services more than 22,000 restaurants, as well as airlines, cruise ships, major hotels, K-12 schools, and the military. With a list of notable clients and partners such as Starbucks, Panera Bread, Taffer's Tavern as well as some renowned hotel groups such as the Ritz-Carlton, Marriott, Hilton Worldwide, Virgin Hotels, and the Conrad Hotels and Resorts. Cuisine Solutions is the world's leading manufacturer and distributor of sous-vide foods and is recognized by top chefs as the authority on sous-vide, the innovative slow-cooking technique that they pioneered, perfected, and popularized decades ago. Primarily, Kisses from Italy will be working with CREA, The Culinary Research and Education Academy, a division of Cuisine Solutions. CREA's research and development team innovate new cooking techniques and recipes, anticipating clients' needs and market trends while incorporating the best ingredients. Additionally, CREA specializes in the latest and state-of-the-art advanced cooking equipment, computerized monitoring systems, which ensure precise cooking times, temperatures, and consistency across the operational process.

"We were introduced to Cuisine Solutions by Dan Rowe, Founder, and CEO of Fransmart, and we could not have asked for a better partner to collaborate with when it comes to menu ideas and operational layout for our current and future locations," commented Claudio Ferri, co-CEO, CIO, and co-founder of Kisses from Italy. "We have been primarily collaborating with A.J. Schaller an executive chef at CREA. It has been an absolute pleasure getting to work with A.J. and being given the opportunity and ability to broaden our scope in this industry. Working with industry leaders, such as CREA, has provided us with the opportunity to learn from the best so that we can position our Company for future fundamental growth," added Ferri.

Michele Di Turi, President, co-CEO, and co-founder of Kisses from Italy also commented, "The equipment that will allow us to become hoodless and ventless creates an opportunity to improve operational efficiencies while being able to scale back large variable expenses such as labor costs, but all the while still gives us the ability to offer the same quality menu that our guests have come to love. Sharing our love for our unique concept and enthusiasm are a few of the components to make it work but the most important is showing future franchisees the right unit economics that will compel them to gravitate to the Kisses from Italy brand and concept."
