Toast Distillers, Inc., a Miami-based spirits conglomerate known best for its ultra-premium vodka Toast™, is partnering with Cosmetic Corporation of America, Inc. and Veritas Farms, Inc. (OTCQB: VFRM) to address the increasing need for hand sanitizers throughout the U.S. in response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
The Miami Distilling Company, a subsidiary of Toast Distillers, Inc., and Cosmetic Corporation of America, Inc., will locally produce varying sizes and dispensers of the hand sanitizer at the Cosmetic Corporation of America manufacturing warehouse in Medley. The hand sanitizer contains 70% isopropyl alcohol, aloe vera, and vitamin E. It will be available online beginning May 18 through Veritas Farms’ robust online platform at https://www.theveritasfarms.com/shop/.
Toast Distillers, Inc. and Cosmetic Corporation of America, Inc., together, have been adept in responding ― with production and shipment ― to demand for hand sanitizers both locally in South Florida and nationwide since the early stages of COVID-19. The demand is from various sectors including military, government, and traditional retail.
“We are thrilled to partner with Cosmetic Corporation of America and Veritas Farms to combat COVID-19. We couldn’t have asked for a better working relationship with so many truly amazing people,” said David Garretson, CFO of Toast Distillers, Inc.
Veritas Farms, a vertically-integrated agribusiness focused on the production of full spectrum hemp extracts with naturally occurring cannabinoids, will use its distribution network of over 6,000 stores and its quickly growing online presence to make the product readily available to consumers.
Toast Distillers, Inc. was the co-title sponsor with Veritas Farms of “A Toast to Basel” during Art Basel Miami Beach 2019. Veritas Farms was also the Official Health and Wellness Sponsor of Art Miami 2019.
“To work with Veritas Farms to maximize distribution of the company’s branded hand sanitizers aligns perfectly with our current distilling objectives,” said Dieuveny “DJ” Jean Louis, founder and CEO of Toast Distillers, Inc. “Veritas Farms, which has multiple products in many of the major retail chains, is the ideal retail partner for Toast Distillers, Inc.”
“We are pleased to partner once again with Toast Distillers, Inc., which is playing an integral role to help Veritas Farms continue to make a difference amid the COVID-19 crisis,” said Alexander M. Salgado, CEO and co-founder of Veritas Farms.
