Beyond Oil Signs Commercial Distribution Agreement with TEJA Food Group

VANCOUVER, BC and KIBBUTZ YIFAT, ISRAEL / ACCESSWIRE / June 22, 2022 / Beyond Oil Ltd. (CSE:BOIL) ("Beyond Oil" or the "Company"), a food-tech innovation company extending the life of frying oil, reducing costs and waste, is pleased to announce that, further to its news release dated March 22, 2022, it has entered into a definitive distribution agreement (the "Distribution Agreement") with TEJA Food Group ("TEJA") to market and sell Beyond Oil's product to the restaurant market in Canada and the United States.

Cooking oil prices have risen dramatically since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic and are continuing to rise, causing increased cost pressures for restaurant owners and other food producers around the world.

"We have been searching extensively for a technological solution that will help our customers cope with the increasing cost pressures of frying oil, without compromising the quality and the taste of their food," said Tom Grande, President of TEJA Food Group. "Our customers remain our top priority and we are always driven by the desire to give them the best and healthiest product. We are pleased to have entered into this distribution agreement with Beyond Oil and to have found a unique product that will give restaurants and food processors the ability to cut costs and provide healthier food to their valued consumers".

As announced previously, Beyond Oil has received a non-objection letter from the US Food & Drug Administration ("FDA") to sell its product in the United States. Beyond Oil has also received a non-objection letter from Health Canada to sell its product in the Canadian markets.

"We are proud to see growing interest from restaurants, food chains, and food producers who have begun to realize the significant benefits that our product can deliver for the companies, the customers, and for the planet," said Dr. Tamir Gedo, CEO of Beyond Oil. "This distribution agreement with TEJA is another strategic milestone for Beyond Oil as we progress towards commercialization. We are pleased to partner with Tom Grande and his innovative team at TEJA, who we believe will be strong and important partners in the North American food market."

Beyond Oil continues to move closer to commercialization, having completed its public listing transaction in May 2022. The Company anticipates shipping its product to TEJA to sell to end users in a gradual manner, beginning with its first customers, including Joey's Franchising Ltd., operating under the brand names Joey's Fish & Chips, Joey's Fish Shack and strEATS.

Product Highlights

Frying Oils Recovery: Extensive testing indicates that Beyond Oil's product extends the usable life of frying oil, improves product quality, and reduces frying oil costs. As a preferential adsorbent, the product reduces soluble impurities formed during the frying process that causes damaging free fatty acids ("FFA") and polar compound formation, undesirable odors, off-flavors, and off-colors. The product is simple to integrate into existing daily filtration processes.

One-of-a-Kind: To the Company's knowledge, Beyond Oil has developed a unique solution that can eliminate FFA almost completely without damaging oil quality. This solution compares to magnesium-based filter powders that have existed for years that only marginally reduce FFA levels.

Patent Protected: The Company has a portfolio of registered and patent pending solutions that extend the shelf-life of produced and used oils.

Bottom-Line Savings: Beyond Oil's unique value proposition is that it could dramatically lower costs for quick service restaurants by extending the life use of the oil significantly while retaining the original taste profile.

Distribution Ready: The Company received a non-objection letter from the FDA in March 2022, on the basis that all the Beyond Oil product ingredients meet food-grade specifications of the FDA. In May 2022, Beyond Oil received a non-objection letter from Health Canada and a National Sanitation Foundation certification.

How Our Product Works

The Beyond Oil solution integrates with existing processes as a processing aid or as a filter aid. The process includes passive microfiltration designed to remove all components through a combination of active filtration by the powder and passive filtration by a microfiltration paper. This process ensures no residue is left in the oil while maximizing the efficiency of removing other degradation particles.
