October 20th - This past week Kickbutt was showcased at the NAMA Expo in St. Louis, Missouri. The NAMA Expo focuses on the vending side of our business and we brought both our Kickbutt and Alertz machines to the show.

Overall it was a very successful show! Click on the pictures below to check out our booth.

October 7th - The Kickbutt team were at the NACS Convenience Show in Chicago, Illinois this past weekend.

September 14th - This weekend we were at the CHFA (Canadian Health Food Association) East Expo in Toronto, Ontario at the Metro Convention Centre. We had a great 10 ft x 10 ft booth and were a part of the SunOpta/Purity Life section (who is our Canadian distributor) at the show. We gave out tons of samples and received a lot of positive responses from people that attended! Everyone loved the chewy texture and delicious taste of the Kickbutt ballz. We even had other booth vendors coming back a bunch of times for more Kickbutt to help them get through the 2 days of the show!

We also had the opportunity to meet store managers who have ordered Kickbutt through Purity Life and carry it in their stores now. It was very rewarding to hear all the awesome things they had to say about our product and how well the product is moving at their stores. It’s always encouraging to hear positive things about Kickbutt, if you have a testimony you want to submit about Kickbutt, e-mail us at info@funenergyfoods.com and we’ll hook you up with some free samples!
