Poore Brothers Inc., Goodyear, AZ, and T.G.I. Fridays, a worldwide leader in the casual dining industry, have teamed to launch an innovative new line of T.G.I. Friday's brand of salted snacks in supermarkets, mass merchandisers, and club stores this summer.
In an exclusive, multi-year licensing agreement, the companies plan to introduce three products: T.G. I. Friday's Loaded Potato Skins, Fire Bites, and Quesadillas. The products will be manufactured at Poore Brothers' Indiana facility.
Jana Markle, director of brand licensing for Carlson Restaurants worldwide, parent of T.G.I. Friday's restaurants, commented, "We want to provide our guests with innovative retail food products that allow them to `take the fun home.' We believe we accomplished our goal by combining the two companies."
