Noble Roman's Continues Expansion of Grocery Store Venue with Addition of Seven New Distribution Centers

With this Addition, the Company Now has 17 Grocery Distribution Centers; Expects Grocery Store Venue Revenue in 2015 to Grow 70-90% vs. 2014

INDIANAPOLIS, IN - ACCESSWIRE - June 25, 2015 - Noble Roman's, Inc. (NROM), the Indianapolis based franchisor and licensor of Noble Roman's Pizza and Tuscano's Italian Style Subs, today announced that over the past two months, the company has provided inventory to seven new grocery distribution centers, representing approximately 1,200 grocery stores in six states. The company has now stocked a total of 17 grocery store distribution centers across the country.

Paul Mobley, Chairman and Chief Financial Officer, commented, "Interest in our grocery store venue continues to expand, and we are building the network to enable us to take advantage of this opportunity by adding distribution centers, which gives us new potential customers for further expansion. Our policy is to count a distribution center as part of our network only after initial inventory orders are delivered. We are encouraged by this progress, and expect to add seven to 10 additional distribution centers by the end of August."

The Company will be demonstrating its take-n-bake products at the national convention of one of the largest grocery distribution chains in August to representatives from thousands of grocery stores around the country. The previously announced two larger grocery store chains that signed agreements in late 2014 began opening the company's take-n-bake concept in the second quarter, and are expected to continue to open additional locations this year.

As a result of this progress in the Grocery Store Venue, management currently expects 2015 revenue for this portion of the business to grow 70-90% compared to 2014, representing full-year revenue of $2.5 million to $2.8 million. Overall, management expects full-year 2015 revenue to be between $9.3 million and $9.9 million, representing an increase of approximately 20% compared to 2014.

The company continues to focus on growth in three primary venues: non-traditional franchises and licenses other than grocery stores ("host premise" venue), the sale of take-n-bake pizzas through grocery deli departments and stand-alone take-n-bake franchised locations.
