The year was August, 2022, when this post was made by Noble Roman.
And what a Noble man he was. Persecuted like all truth sayers in history. His voice silenced by corrupt teens with no jobs. His history erased from the Earth if said unemployed teens had those powers to abuse.
I can attest to the fact that Noble has all 70,000 shares when he made this post. He still has not parted with a single one. What did those being guided by Mr. Market say? They said Sam would burn the place to the ground rather than allow anybody to make money. Did anybody speak up against any nonsense. No. Only Noble Roman. The one voice of reason. Let's recap that:
I wouldn't call that his trump card. His trump card is probably exactly how Denver Smith spells it out in his scathing his letter: His shares and his buddy on the board. US Foods is a business deal, and they are not one voice, and I'm sure this business arrangement isn't all personal. The deal doesn't stand or fall with our CEO. It stands or falls on the business. Is it good or bad for them? That's how they have always looked at it and always will I'm sure.
As for him burning down the business as his "trump card," then he shoots himself in the foot. All his shares go down in flames with him. Or, he could stand to benefit like the rest of us with his removal. *Assuming* Pappas and Banderas see eye to eye with Denver Smith. The votes are there.
Either way, doesn't matter. They may see lift off. Or, *everybody* crashes and burns with Sam. Which is the only way it should be. Vested interests on the titanic are underwater already, so it's a very fair arrangement as I see it. I say let the cards fall where they fall.
Trump card? Sam's trump card was to burn the company to the ground? If he can't have it nobody can?? I hope those people are wearing dunce hats. They just vanish and never issue any apologies for their persecutory rants. Maybe that was projection on their part.
I'm pretty sure Noble Roman has no plans to sell any shares until it reaches $10.00 per share. Going to $1 billion in revenue in Phase 3. Already in Phase 2.
And I'd also like to say that our self-proclaimed experts said that if they were CEO, there is nothing they could do. It's too far gone. A lost cause, they said. Obviously, that wasn't Bill Bennet posting here. Our savior.

BONITA SPRINGS, Fla., Oct. 23, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Innovative Food Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: IVFH) (“IVFH” or the “Company”), a national seller of gourmet specialty foods to professional chefs, announced today the shipment of its largest purchase order in company history through its newly established partnership with a top 10 U.S. retailer.
This milestone order totaled $676,000 of gourmet cheese. This order represented an acceleration of approximately twenty times compared to our cheese production rates of only two weeks prior. The scale and complexity of this order highlight the strength of IVFH's operational capabilities and its commitment to delivering premium products at scale. To meet the demands of this partnership, IVFH recently installed four new high-efficiency packaging machines. This marks a significant expansion of the Company’s operational infrastructure.
Outlook for Q4 and Beyond
As IVFH continues to ramp up production to serve its new retail partner, the Company expects substantial revenue growth throughout Q4 of 2024. Due to startup costs associated with the expansion, IVFH expects profits from this partnership to begin materializing in early 2025.
Bill Bennett, Chief Executive Officer of IVFH, commented, "This is an exciting time for our company as we expand into the retail market. The size and scale of this order speak to the tremendous opportunity ahead, and we are confident that our investments in people, infrastructure, and technology will continue to drive long-term value for our shareholders."

IVFH up 250% on Noble Roman's Portfolio, and I have it on good authority that he has all 71,000 of his shares still.
Time to review his post from 8-22-22:
---------------------------------------------------
1. You really don't know what's happening. The letter is fresh, and he wasn't able to talk to Banderas and Pappas according to his letter. We don't know if they are in discussions now or not.
2. It's not possible to conclude if Pappas and Banderas bought in or IFFF Denver Smith proposed it. But with Denver's allies and his recent buying, Pappas and Banderas, it doesn't take a big percentage of the retail investors to get in board. And the onlne consensus there is pretty clear. There is that path.
3. It's not that logical to conclude they see no way out of the mess. Banderas put up $3M of his own money last year. That's not very long ago and the landscape hasn't changed. Whatever he saw then, he sees now. And #2 is another fork in the road and way out. If they don't take it, that too is most likely bullish. Or, it means they were duped. Which I dn't find logical, but it may be a good coping mechanism for others that may have been duped. The more logical thing to concluce is that these high IQ's that may or may not be on the same page as Sam now -- or Sam on board with them now -- is that an intelligent plan fails. And that's called risk. And the floor is not that far below. It's only 20 cents. Unless someone were to have all their eggs in this basket, no reason to panic as the nervous nellies around here 24/7.
4. The fact that the stock doesn't trade high enough means they have no liquidity, as I noted. And that they are underwater, as I noted. So, they are stuck. That's bullish to me. A fire under their rears and a short runway without taking on more debt or more dilution at their own expense. It's called having Mr. Market in a headlock.
5. It's not obvious what, if anything, Denber presented or whether or not the board supported it or an agreement was reached. There will be a plan. There always is. And the fact that there is no way out for them but crash, burn, or fly, is good enough for me.
___________________________________________________
Please don't argue with Noble Roman again. Or me, for that matter. As you can see, it's very costly when you think it's more important to be not wrong than it is to be right.

$IVFH PR: Innovative Food Holdings, Inc. Announces Recap of First 100 Days of CEO Bill Bennett
Company plans to begin quarterly earnings calls in August; long-term strategy to be outlined later this year
BONITA SPRINGS, Fla., July 11, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Innovative Food Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: IVFH) (“IVFH” or the “Company”), a national seller of gourmet specialty foods to Professional Chefs and Home Gourmets, today announced the completion of CEO Bill Bennett’s first 100 days with the Company, and shared a recap of the accelerated pace of change he has initiated so far. This includes progress on several of the initiatives outlined in his recent shareholder letter, such as the Company’s cash flow management, financing structure, and e-commerce strategy.
Under Mr. Bennett’s leadership over the last 100 days, IVFH has refreshed its board of directors, elected a new chairman, hired a new outside general counsel (Ellenoff Grossman & Schole LLP), onboarded new auditors (Assurance Dimensions), updated and expanded the Company’s corporate governance documents and board committee charters, made significant business process changes to improve margins, refinanced the Company’s outstanding short term loans with significant maturity extensions, increased the borrowing capacity of the Company, hired a new COO (Brady Smallwood), and finalized a budget and incentive program for 2023 focused on prudent growth and profitability.
In addition, the Company has made important progress on the evolution of its e-commerce strategy. As stated in Mr. Bennett’s April 2023 letter to shareholders, the Company is focusing on improving customer retention and lifetime value by examining each step of the end-to-end customer journey, identifying areas of fallout, and testing aggressively. Such efforts have included 1) iGourmet’s recent launch of its first ever loyalty program and 2) its new gourmet meat offering “Butcher Counter by iGourmet”, with a focus on creating new customer purchase occasions.
Lastly, Mr. Bennett has implemented a Company-wide re-organization dubbed “One IVFH” to put the customer at the center of the Company. With three distinct business units (Professional Chef, Home Gourmet, and Brand Services), this new structure is intended to (1) unlock growth, (2) establish clear accountabilities, and (3) enable faster innovation.
“I have focused my first 100 days on getting the right leaders in the right roles and on setting the Company on a path to driving shareholder value,” stated Bill Bennett, CEO of IVFH. “I have been incredibly impressed by the team we have here at IVFH. They are passionate and committed and are jumping into their new roles with vigor. As I stated in my first annual shareholder letter, we remain on track to publicly discuss our longer-term strategy later this year.”
Mr. Bennett continued, “I’ve also enjoyed my conversations with many investors who have reached out to welcome me to the Company and wish me well. I look forward to continued dialog and transparent communication with our shareholders. In fact, I’m excited to announce that starting with our Q2 earnings release in August, we plan to initiate quarterly earnings calls with investors. Further details on the call timing and logistics will be the subject of a future press release.”

Attitudes sure changed around here. Perhaps it's time to take a look a Noble Roman's post here that I'm responding too. Perhaps some apologies are in order. Who would like to go first. To recap a few things he said:
1. You really don't know what's happening. The letter is fresh, and he wasn't able to talk to Banderas and Pappas according to his letter. We don't know if they are in discussions now or not.
2. It's not possible to conclude if Pappas and Banderas bought in or IFFF Denver Smith proposed it. But with Denver's allies and his recent buying, Pappas and Banderas, it doesn't take a big percentage of the retail investors to get in board. And the onlne consensus there is pretty clear. There is that path.
3. It's not that logical to conclude they see no way out of the mess. Banderas put up $3M of his own money last year. That's not very long ago and the landscape hasn't changed. Whatever he saw then, he sees now. And #2 is another fork in the road and way out. If they don't take it, that too is most likely bullish. Or, it means they were duped. Which I dn't find logical, but it may be a good coping mechanism for others that may have been duped. The more logical thing to concluce is that these high IQ's that may or may not be on the same page as Sam now -- or Sam on board with them now -- is that an intelligent plan fails. And that's called risk. And the floor is not that far below. It's only 20 cents. Unless someone were to have all their eggs in this basket, no reason to panic as the nervous nellies around here 24/7.
4. The fact that the stock doesn't trade high enough means they have no liquidity, as I noted. And that they are underwater, as I noted. So, they are stuck. That's bullish to me. A fire under their rears and a short runway without taking on more debt or more dilution at their own expense. It's called having Mr. Market in a headlock.
5. It's not obvious what, if anything, Denber presented or whether or not the board supported it or an agreement was reached. There will be a plan. There always is. And the fact that there is no way out for them but crash, burn, or fly, is good enough for me.
So, simple logic alone rules the day. Overthinking, as usual, kept people from buying below .20. You can lead a mule to water...
Let's take a look at this letter today from the new CEO. Didn't even have to spill blood to get a new CEO. Oh, what was that earlier about the former CEO would never step down. Oh, he had a secret weapon up his sleeve. Was that right?
You know, I read this letter, and I just know he gets it.
I think it's safe to conclude that nobody would step down from a $10-billion dollar division in a much more stable company to a company with a $17-million market cap on shaky ground. Unless they are a High School Track star on the Varsity team and asked to join the little league team with the condition that if they take them to State, you get Olympic sized income and sponsorship.
"Most recently, I led eCommerce for The Kroger Co., responsible for Kroger’s $10 billion eCommerce business. "
Since the former only used to happen in my dreams, I think it's safe to conclude that dreams do happen on Wall Street.
My current 14.7% paper return is chump change. Not acceptable for this risk/return/duration. I'm looking forward to 140% return here. I think it's quite doable. Actually, to be honest, 400% is quite doable. 140% is also chump change.
Truth!

Letter to shareholders from new CEO, Bill Bennett:
BONITA SPRINGS, Fla., April 10, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Innovative Food Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: IVFH) (“IVFH” or the “Company”), a national seller of gourmet specialty foods to professional and home chefs today released the following letter from the Chief Executive Officer to Shareholders.
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
With just a few weeks under my belt, it is thrilling to write my first letter to our shareholders. As you may know, I joined IVFH as CEO on February 28, 2023, after an extensive career at several Fortune 500 food, consumer, and retail companies. Most recently, I led eCommerce for The Kroger Co., responsible for Kroger’s $10 billion eCommerce business. I am honored to have the opportunity to serve IVFH as CEO and leverage my background, network, and leadership experience to take IVFH to the next level. I am excited by the opportunities ahead of us and believe the Company can create significant value for its customers, team members, and shareholders.
I’m particularly excited to take over at a time when the Company has made great strides in its financial results, especially over the last two quarters. In 2022, IVFH grew revenues by 28.8% to an annual record of $80.1 million. This was driven by a strong fourth quarter, with revenues up 14.5% to a quarterly record of $23.9 million. But even more impressive was the way we achieved this growth as we improved SG&A from 33.0% of revenue to 24.6% of revenue. In addition, after several years of unprecedented eCommerce growth, we made the bold decision to pull back on our marketing spend to focus on profitability, while improving the customer experience.
Over the first several weeks of my journey here, I’ve been getting to know IVFH from the inside, meeting our passionate and committed team members, touring our facilities, and delving into our financials. My next few weeks will be spent getting to know our customers, partners, and service providers. Over the near term, my goal is to create a cohesive strategy and organization. There is so much opportunity at IVFH, and it will be exciting to pull it all together into a crisp package so we can discuss where we are headed with our team members, customers, partners, and shareholders.
Everything we do is with a lens towards creating shareholder value. Three key principles govern our work: 1) Managing cash flow is of utmost importance, and we still have work to do to produce consistent positive operating cash flow. 2) Building a consistent and reliable financing structure is critical. We will achieve an important milestone when we hopefully receive approval from the USDA on our loan guarantee, refinancing our short-term loan into a 30-year loan, and equipping us with additional growth capital. 3) Managing equity dilution to ensure our hard work pays off. For example, my compensation package does not include a single share of stock until the Company hits some meaningful stock price thresholds. As my tenure as CEO develops, look for more details on our strategic plan later this year.
In the meantime, I want to share a few key observations I have had so far.
First, after spending nearly 20 years across many of the world’s leading food, consumer, and retail companies, I believe IVFH offers something truly unique in the marketplace. Our ability to find a myriad of small, unique products and seamlessly provide them to a large customer base, is a competency that cannot be easily replicated. I have already heard from many of our professional chef and aspiring home chef customers about the value we bring. We simply scale the unscalable and focus on providing our customers with a unique assortment and high level of service.
Second, because we have a diversified range of businesses to build from, I believe that significant revenue growth opportunities exist. Partnerships with several of our broadline customers are nascent. The eCommerce market for food remains in its early days, and our share of that market is underdeveloped. Our broad assortment can be better utilized across all our selling channels, and our capabilities can be more broadly leveraged.
Third, I believe there are meaningful opportunities to expand profitability. While gross margin suffered in the 2022 fourth quarter, we understand the causes and we are working quickly to address them. We also need to think about our mix of business. To grow our eCommerce business going forward, it cannot lose money and offset the gains we have in our profitable food service business. We must change the structure of the business and the go-to-market strategy to ensure we can do so profitably. The biggest element of the change needs to be driven by delving into every aspect of customer retention to ensure that when we spend marketing dollars to attract a customer, we build a relationship and keep them for the long term. We are examining each step of the end-to-end customer journey, identifying areas of fallout, and making the necessary improvements. The fourth quarter was a good step forward on eCommerce profitability with improvements in our acquisition costs and conversion rates. I am confident IVFH can make continued progress there.
I will finish by saying thank you. Thank you for your support, your commitment to IVFH, and your partnership in growing this business profitably. I look forward to sharing more on our strategy with you later this year.
In the meantime, if you have any questions, concerns, or comments please contact me. I’d love to connect and hear from you.
Sincerely,
Bill
