In 2024, Katz Gluten Free participated in Food Export-Northeast’s Branded Program to gain brand awareness in Canada and Australia. Using their allocated funds to make label modifications and attend tradeshows helped the Mountainville, New York-based supplier gain $250,000 in sales to Australia, and $500,000 to Canada. The supplier also projects to complete over $1,350,000 in sales in the next twelve months to both of these countries. Katz also gained 3 new foreign buyer contacts and established 3 new distributorships. According to Faigy Weinberger, who manages the documentation requirements of the Branded Program for Katz, “The Branded Program has given us such ease of mind knowing that we are getting reimbursement for our costly international expenses. It helps us grow and expand our international sales further, without doubt!”
