BUSINESS
ITEM 1. BUSINESS Overview Sow Good is a trailblazing U.S.-based freeze dried candy and snack manufacturer dedicated to providing consumers with innovative and explosively flavorful freeze dried treats. Sow Good has harnessed the power of our proprietary freeze drying technology and product-specialized manufacturing facility to transform traditional candy into a novel and exciting everyday confectionaries subcategory that we call freeze dried candy. We began commercializing our freeze dried candy products in the first quarter of 2023, and as of December 31, 2023, we have fourteen stock keeping units ("SKUs") in our Sow Good Candy line of treats and four SKUs in our Sow Good Crunch Cream line. We sell our treats using an omnichannel strategy primarily focused on the wholesale and retail channels with less than 2% of sales coming from e-commerce as of December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, our treats are offered for sale in over 5,850 brick-and-mortar retail outlets in the United States. The rapid demand growth for our delectable treats since their retail debut in March 2023 highlights our consumers' excitement for our novel and explosively flavorful treats that "satisfy your sweet tooth in fewer bites." We have custom-built a 20,945 square foot freeze drying facility in Irving, Texas, and have entered into additional co-manufacturing arrangements in China and Colombia, that together allow us to freeze dry fourteen million units per year to our demanding quality and safety specifications. Freeze drying removes up to 99% of moisture from a product in its frozen state by applying a small amount of heat in an extremely low air pressure, near outer space-like environment, through the use of massive vacuum chambers, resulting in moisture being removed from the product at the speed of sound. This process of removing moisture from the product, which can take up to twenty-four hours, concentrates its flavor, creating a "hyper dried, hyper crunchy, and hyper flavorful
