Healthy Vending Brand Selects Los Angeles Agency with Strong Franchise Expertise

March 29, 2016 // Franchising.com // SAN DIEGO – Fresh Healthy Vending International, Inc. (OTCQB: VEND), the nation’s leading healthy vending franchisor announced today the selection of Los Angeles-based Konnect Agency as its agency of record for public relations services. Konnect will assist and drive PR initiatives and build media relations for both the Fresh Healthy Vending brand products, as well as the recently announced Reis and Irvy’s frozen yogurt kiosks.

Fresh Healthy Vending is a socially responsible franchisor dedicated to making healthy snacks, drinks and fresh foods available to people across North America and beyond. The company recently announced an agreement with Robofusion, Inc. for an exclusive licensing deal as the exclusive franchisor, direct seller and corporate operator of the Reis and Irvy’s frozen yogurt vending kiosks. This development, as well as plans for future expansion, led to the search for a franchise-focused PR partner.

“As we looked ahead for not only Fresh Healthy Vending and the newly announced Reis and Irvy’s brand, we wanted a strategic partner that was familiar with our category space and was driven to help drive our business in the right direction,” said Paul Schmidt, Chief Marketing Officer for FHV. “Konnect’s strong track record of success with clients in the franchise and food & beverage space position them well to play an integral role in developing and executing marketing and communications initiatives that will help Fresh Healthy Vending and our franchisees thrive.”

“We’re excited to expand our franchise portfolio with a brand dedicated to innovation in the vending sector,” said Sabina Gault, CEO of Konnect Agency. “We can’t wait to help push the launch of the Reis & Irvy’s over the top and show consumers and potential franchisees how special they are.”
