Just look for the building shaped like an ice cream cone. businesswire.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ BW0048 APR 13,1999 4:02 PACIFIC 07:02 EASTERN ( BW)(MO-TWISTEE-TREAT)(TWTE) Twistee Treat Corp. Signs License to Develop Canadian Market Business Editors/Food Editors WARRENSBURG, Mo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 13, 1999--Twistee Treat Corp. (OTC BB:TWTE), marketers of patented "Firm-Serve" ice cream through both the company-owned and franchised stores, has signed a license with Twistee Treat Canada of London, Ontario under which it will open its own Twistee Treat stores and promote franchises all across Canada. Stephen B. Wells, president, said the five-year agreement plans for Twistee Treat Canada to develop and open a minimum of 50 stores over the next 48 months. The new company's three principals combine 17 years' experience in the retail ice cream business, including franchising, plus years of professional financial management. Along with its proprietary ice cream product, Twistee Treat sells non-fat yogurt and other frozen desserts, usually from its distinctive cone-shaped building, also patented. The company also operates and franchises a kiosk model for use in shopping malls, airports, colleges, and similar gathering places. A mobile unit, also available, visits fairs, outdoor shows and sporting events. Under the Canadian license, all these versions will be available to the licensee, Wells said, including the new Twistee Treat Express Grille, which is a sit-down restaurant with a full fast-food-type menu. "We view Canada as a real marketing opportunity for us," Wells said, "and we believe it will prove to be a profitable venture for both parties." --30--dlc/ix* CONTACT: Molesworth Associates Inc.
