VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Feb. 16, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Global Gardens Group Inc. (the "Company") (CSE:VGM) is pleased to highlight the outstanding feedback and traction received in the media in support of its proprietary “Veggemo” non-dairy vegetable based beverage line.

“As our in-store distribution continues to grow across Canada, it allows for the further execution of our marketing plan,” stated Wade Bayne, VP Marketing Global Gardens Group. Mr. Bayne further added “our focus is to drive brand awareness and to connect to targeted consumers wherever they are and in the forum where they are most receptive to the Veggemo message. In January, we announced the roll-out of our sampling initiatives both in-stores and at key consumer events which include TED2016 Vancouver and the Expo West Natural Products Show in Anaheim.  The other key platform for Veggemo is to leverage the power of social media especially given that the targeted consumer is a millennial.  To-date, we have received excellent support from the health & wellness print and blogger community. These third party validations of Veggemo’s veggie-based positioning, ingredients, nutritional profile and use in recipes as a milk replacement highlight that we have a winning brand and now it is about driving growth.”

Global Gardens Group CEO Rob Harrison states: “The support we have received on social media and with print publications is a true testament to our product and our company’s growth potential as we move closer to becoming a globally recognized brand. Our continuous progress will fuel our commitment to drive shareholder value.  We couldn’t be more excited about our future and thus look forward to updating our shareholders over the coming quarters.”
