Cross Atlantic Commodities Inc, a multi-national importer and distributor of food items and specialty consumer products, has shipped its first order of Italian ice cream “gelato” in conjunction with its five-year exclusive distribution agreement with Durigon Gelato Gmbh.
The two containers of private label product, with a retail value of about $250,000, will soon be on the shelves at more than 800 stores of a major United States food chain.
Cross Atlantic entered the multi-billion dollar ice cream market in December 2006, when it signed an exclusive, five-year distribution agreement with German-based Durigon Gelato.
