LeanLife Health Inc. (CSE: LLP) is pleased to announce that it has received a preliminary order from RD Heritage Group, LLC reserving up to US$10,000,000 of the Company’s flaxseed-based Omega 3 ingredients for RD Heritage customers to use in enhancing the health profiles of their foods.

The preliminary order represents the next step in a relationship formalized between LeanLife Health and RD Heritage in January, when the companies entered an agreement calling for RD Heritage to market LeanLife Omega 3 products to its network of food industry contacts in the United States and other markets (see news release of January 25, 2018).

Terms call for the preliminary order to remain in effect for 12 months following the initiation of production by LeanLife’s processing facility in Vancouver, British Columbia.  Processing equipment is currently being installed at the facility and production is anticipated toward the end of the second quarter of 2018.

Closing of the preliminary order is subject to a number of conditions, including the Company commencing production of Omega 3 products, RD Heritage customers completing testing and quality control confirmation of the Company’s Omega 3 products, and the parties agreeing on unit prices.  RD Heritage will be entitled to an agreed upon commission on gross sales generated under the preliminary order.

“We are excited that RD Heritage sees the potential for such a significant amount of business with the food producers in its network during the first year that our new facility is in production,” said Stan Lis, Chief Executive Officer of LeanLife Health.  “The last six months have been crucial to LeanLife, as we accessed technology late in 2017 that can dramatically increase output of our Omega 3 food ingredients and enable us to meet large orders.  With the launch of our Vancouver facility drawing near, we will be reflecting input from RD Heritage as we finalize our initial production plans.”
